Domaine Guy Amiot Et Fils, Bouzeron Les Bouillottes, 2021

$44.00

Domaine Guy Amiot et Fils is known primarily for its distinguished work in Chassagne-Montrachet, but the family’s touch with Aligoté in Bouzeron shows equal finesse. Les Bouillottes is a small, well-exposed parcel planted to Aligoté Doré, the region’s prized old genetic strain that gives greater texture and complexity than the more common Aligoté Vert. The domaine farms responsibly and keeps the cellar approach modest so the grape’s characteristics are preserved.

The 2021 vintage is lively and precise, showing citrus, green pear and a subtle floral tone, with a gentle herbal edge that feels true to Aligoté Doré. The palate is crisp and well-shaped, with bright acidity and a fine mineral line that brings focus to the finish. This is an articulate, refreshing Bouzeron that is effortlessly drinkable.

Varietal: Aligoté Doré
Appellation: Bouzeron Les Bouillottes, Côte Chalonnaise, Burgundy, France
Farming: Sustainable practices
Style: White. Bright, mineral and finely textured
