Théo Dancer Bourgogne Aligoté 1.5L MAGNUM 2023

Théo Dancer Bourgogne Aligoté comes from a plot of organic old-vine Aligoté in Meursault, bottled here in magnum.

Aligoté is Burgundy's second white variety and is usually planted on the flatter, cooler ground the region reserves for its lesser wines, which is why a Meursault parcel of old vines is worth noting. Théo Dancer began working with this plot in 2022. It is vinified exactly as the Vincent Dancer whites are: the juice ferments naturally with all of its lees, there is no bâtonnage, and the wine is raised in large-format barrels over winter before resting in vat. It is racked once and bottled unfiltered. The style is textural but bright, with the variety's natural cut intact, and it shows the depth Aligoté can reach when the site and the vine age are there.

Drinking well now and worth keeping for three to five years. Serve at 10-12°C with a dozen oysters, pan-fried whiting or a gougère.
