The 2010 Bourgogne Aligoté is soft, refined and impeccably balanced to the point it could easily be confused with Chardonnay. Light hints of butter, apricot and white flowers are layered into the textured finish. This is a fabulous showing, and a great way to start the tasting. This Aligoté parcel was planted in 1938.

The 2010 Bourgogne Aligote is soft, refined and impeccably balanced to the point it could easily be confused with Chardonnay. Light hints of butter, apricot and white flowers are layered into the textured finish. This is a fabulous showing, and a great way to start the tasting. This Aligote parcel was planted in 1938. Anticipated maturity: 2012. (Not yet released) This is a stunning set of wines from Arnaud Ente. The 2010s stand out for their transparency, expressiveness and purity. Ente began bringing in his wines on September 15. Yields were down about 30% on average. Ente gave the 2010s 12 months in oak followed by 7-8 months in steel. The wines were all bottled in April 2012. There are a handful of more famous domaines in Meursault, but few that can equal the level of the stunning wines found at this small, family run estate that captures the essence of the Burgundian vigneron spirit.

From vines planted in 1938 and usually an exceptional Aligoté. Very precise and chalky. Fresh and vital. Expresses more clearly Ente's extremely precise style rather than the variety. Lovely stuff with good acidity and great minerality. Even glamorous. GV (JR)
The 2010 Bourgogne Aligote is a gorgeous wine at this level. The vines are over 60 years old, which really comes through in the wine's textural elegance and pedigree. This is a fabulous Bourgogne Aligote well worth seeking out.
