2023 Domaine Georges Lignier Bourgogne Aligote

Slurp Wines NR

Aligoté is Burgundy's other white grape, the one that has spent years in Chardonnay's shadow. It's finally getting the attention it deserves, and bottles like this show why. Domaine Georges Lignier is a family estate in Morey-Saint-Denis, a village famous for its red wines, so their white is a bit of a hidden gem. Expect crunchy green apple, lemon and a light floral touch, all kept lively by fresh, mouth-watering acidity. Lovely on its own. Or do what the Burgundians do and add a splash of crème de cassis for a proper Kir. [Slurp Wines, 28/09/2026]
