From vines approaching 30 years of age located in the commune of Volnay, one-third of the grapes that produced the 2019 Bourgogne Aligoté En Coulezain saw five days of skin contact after destemming, whereas the rest were basket pressed as whole bunches. The resulting wine has turned out brilliantly, mingling aromas of freshly baked bread with hints of pear, green apple, citrus oil and beeswax. Medium to full-bodied, racy and textural, with terrific concentration, racy acids and a long, mouthwatering finish, it's one of the more exciting Aligoté bottlings I tried this year.
