Domaine Les Astrelles Bourgogne Aligoté ‘En Riottes’

The palate is bright, mineral, and finely textured, opening with pear skin, green apple, and lemon peel. The acidity is crisp and linear, giving the wine a taut, refreshing drive that keeps the fruit lifted. A subtle chalk‑dust and limestone‑derived salinity builds through the mid‑palate, adding savoury tension and echoing the site’s white‑limestone bedrock. The mix of oak and clayver brings a gentle roundness and quiet spice, without distracting from the wine’s purity. The finish is long, clean, and mineral‑edged, tapering with notes of lime zest, white peach skin, and a faint herbal lift, leaving a sense of precision and quiet persistence.
