2019 Bourgogne Aligoté, Le Clou 34, Domaine Naudin-Ferrand, Burgundy

Description

This is an Aligoté like no other, so atypical that Claire chooses to label it a Vin de France. Remarkably complex, it has aromas of plum, citrus and baked apple. It’s blended from several parcels, each over 60 years old; one, Le Clou, was planted in 1934. The wine combines Aligoté’s electrifying acidity with a dense, palate-coating texture. Drink 2021-2023. 
Colour White
Sweetness Dry
Vintage 2019

About this wine

Aligoté

A grape that was first recorded in Burgundy in the 18th century and is still planted almost exclusively there, though there are limited plantings in Bulgaria, Moldavia and even California. It is a moderate-yielding grape that tends to perform best on south-east facing slopes and in warm, dry years.

Domaine Naudin-Ferrand

Claire Naudin, one of Henri Naudin-Ferrand’s three daughters, has been in charge of this small domaine based in the Hautes Côtes at Magny-les-Villers, a village that sits astride the dividing line between Hautes Côtes de Beaune and Hautes Côtes de Nuits, since 1994. Claire is relatively susceptible to sulphur and uses the product as little as possible.  Though some of the wines are made in an ‘orthodox fashion, the most exciting wines are those which are vinified with whole bunches (all the stems) and without sulphur, though some SO2 is added at bottling to ensure that the wines remain stable thereafter. Claire’s theory, which her wines bear out admirably, is that there is none of the harshness sometimes evident when the bunches are vinified with their stems if sulphur is not used. Instead a magical floral perfume emanates from the wine.
