Bruno Colin Bourgogne Aligote 2016

Thirty year old Aligote vines gives this white Burgundy a good amount of richness considering the grape variety. This comes from a mere .23 vineyard parcel that's planted in clay and limestone soils. A natural match with any seafood be it from the sea or a river.

Michel Colin was the third generation in his family to grow grapes in Burgundy within the prestigious Côoe de Beaune. When he retired in 2003, he handed the property over to his sons, Philippe and Bruno, who split the holdings between them to bottle under separate labels. With the help of his wife, Stephanie, Bruno farms eight hectares of land, in thirty different parcels scattered over five communes, with sometimes as little as just a few rows per parcel.
