The 2022 Philippe Bouzereau Bourgogne Aligoté is a vibrant white Burgundy that showcases the freshness and character of the Aligoté grape. Produced by the Bouzereau family in Meursault, this wine offers a bright, mineral-driven style with lively citrus fruit and crisp acidity, making it an excellent introduction to one of Burgundy's classic regional varieties.
On the palate, it is light-bodied with refreshing natural acidity and a clean, finely textured mouthfeel. Flavours of lemon zest, green apple and pear are complemented by delicate floral notes and a subtle chalky minerality, leading to a dry, crisp finish with excellent purity and balance.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, the 2022 Philippe Bouzereau Bourgogne Aligoté is a fantastic choice for those seeking a fresh, mineral-focused alternative to Chardonnay. It pairs beautifully with oysters, grilled white fish, prawns, fresh salads or goat's cheese. Best enjoyed well chilled over the next 2–4 years while its vibrant fruit and lively acidity are at their peak.
