Bourgogne Aligoté White 2018 | Wine from Domaine Florent Giboulot

Bourgogne Aligoté Blanc 2018 from Domaine Florent Giboulot

The Domaine Florent Giboulot is a family estate rooted in Burgundian winemaking tradition for several generations. Located in the heart of Burgundy, this estate combines ancestral know-how with respect for the terroirs. The estate, with its 18th-century press still in operation, perpetuates artisanal techniques that give rise to high-quality wines, reflecting the richness of the Burgundian terroir.

The Bourgogne Aligoté Blanc 2018 is a cuvée that charms with its freshness and aromatic complexity. Pressed using an old press, this wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in Burgundian barrels, followed by aging for 12 to 16 months. This traditional method allows the delicate aromas of white flowers like acacia, and white fruits such as green apple to fully reveal themselves. Iodized and saline notes add an extra layer of complexity, offering a remarkable length on the palate.

• Color: Pale yellow with silver reflections.
• Nose: Floral aromas of acacia and white flowers, mixed with hints of green apple and white fruits.
• Palate: Lively freshness, balanced by a subtle salinity and a beautiful length on the palate, with iodized touches that enhance the fruity aromas.

The Bourgogne Aligoté Blanc 2018 is perfect to accompany seafood, especially oysters or shellfish. It also pairs very well with grilled fish dishes, or as an aperitif, served chilled alongside a platter of light cheeses.
