Domaine Vincent & Francois Jouard Bourgogne Aligoté 2021
$34.00
This entry-level white Burgundy offers terrific value at its price point. Look for green apple, green pear, lemon, and lime on the nose, accented with nuances of lemon curd. A hint of oxidation from aging introduces a secondary layer of complexity, bringing to mind a bruised apple paired with a drizzle of honey, ginger, and the soothing undertones of chamomile. Oak influence remains delicate, teasing with hints of vanilla, butter, and perhaps a whisper of allspice. Despite its maturity, the wine retains an impressive freshness, supported by a vibrant acidity.
