" Even though the vines are situated on a rather rich and fertile terroir, Sylvain Pataille proves once again that a great gastronomic wine can be produced on this type of soil. The old age of the vines plays a significant role in the quality of this Bourgogne Aligoté, which offers beautiful volume on the palate; acacia blossom marries gracefully with flavors of citrus and fresh apricot. Broad-shouldered, it is built to accompany an entire meal! "
