Olivier Leflaive Bourgogne Aligoté 2016
The grapes for Olivier Leflaive's Bourgogne Aligoté are sourced from plots located in Puligny and Corpeau. Matured for 10 months (20% in stainless steel tank 80% in oak barrels) before release, this white wine displays a touch of butter and notes of cut hay and minerality on the nose. A delectable and gourmet wine with fatness on the palate.
