Last seen vintage: 2021
Grape varieties: Aligoté
Origin: Bourgogne, Bourgogne, France

The grapes come from old Aligoté vineyard sites near Méloisey in the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune; the Gouttes-d’Or site is steep and has rather shallow, limestone-influenced soils. The grapes are hand-harvested and slowly pressed in an old vertical wooden press. The wine is matured without pumping in used oak casks; for the vintage, a maturation period of approximately twelve to eighteen months is documented. The wine shows fresh acidity, green apple notes, white fruit, chalky minerality and a lean to medium-bodied structure. The site includes old vines, some dating from the 1940s.
