Pierre Morey Bourgogne Aligote 2023

$3599

Aligoté teaches us the wisdom of the ancients. If you grew up on the screechy, insipid version destined for mixing into Kirs and nothing more, you may have wondered why anyone bothered planting the grape at all when they could have planted Chardonnay. Here's your answer: from Pierre Morey — the man who made Leflaive's whites for 20 years and converted both his estate and Leflaive's to biodynamics — comes an Aligoté that is perfectly balanced, with delicious fruit and delicate floral notes, showing off Burgundian terroir in a way that's different but clearly complementary to what Chardonnay shows us. With daughter Anne now fully in charge, these wines have only gotten better.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2023 Bourgogne Aligoté, which had been bottled, offers lilting citrus peel and clementine scents on the nose that just need a little coaxing from the glass. The palate is well balanced with an underlying sapidity, slightly viscous in texture with veins of lemongrass towards the persistent finish. This is a fine upstanding Aligoté from Anne Morey." —Neal Martin

More about Pierre Morey

Pierre Morey is a towering figure in Meursault. Along with his own prime vineyards he was also the winemaker at Domaine Leflaive in the 1980's and early '90's. He was one of the first growers in the region to fully embrace biodynamic farming, converting both Leflaive and his own domaine and reaching full certification by 1997. Now his daughter, Anne Morey, has taken the helm and is continuing on the path he started. She is a very intelligent, passionate and gracious person and her talents in the vineyard and cellar are exceptional.
