Francois Carillon – Bourgogne Aligote 2010 75cl Bottle

Description

Limited stock. This is produced from impressively old vines at between 50 and 60 years old. The yield in 2010 was a scant 35 hl/ha – very low – yet this is repaid by the quality of the finished wine. Orchard fruit dominates the nose, allied to briny minerals and zesty citrus notes. The palate is bright and fresh – an uplifting blend of apple, pear and stone fruit and, unusually, a juicy, grapey finish – very attractive and excellent value.
