Bourgogne Aligoté: Closerie des Alisiers 2021
A zesty, young Bourgogne Aligoté that makes a cracking kir or pre-prandial sharpener. We very much hope you will appreciate it as much as we do!
A light, un-oaked Bourgogne Aligoté selected by the talented Stephane Brocard, bottled under his Closerie des Alisiers range of affordable Burgundy, made from grapes sourced entirely from a single source at Domaine des Coteaux du Val Lamartinien. Fresh and vibrant, with flinty minerality, notes of citrus, hazelnuts and cashews. Drink young with chicken, white fish or spring vegetables.

Stéphane Brocard - Closerie des Alisiers
Stéphane Brocard is a branché Chablisien who found his family's wine business becoming crowded when working alongside his brother and sister-in-law and sister and brother-in-law. An intimate knowledge of Burgundy and a hankering to do his own thing led him to set up a boutique négociant business - Closerie des Alisiers - contracting in small parcels of carefully selected grapes, as well as investing in a precious plot of Pommard, for which he has high aspirations.
