Catherine & Claude Marechal, Aligote 2023 French Wine Bandol is unique in FranceThe Wine This wine is beautifully soft yet crisp, with the delicate, teasing character Aligote is famous for. Bright and fresh from the 2023 vintage, it boasts lovely acidity, crispness, and a refined balance. The fruit expression is not only attractive but also shows impressive complexity. Aged entirely in tank, this 2023 vintage is nicely concentrated and offers excellent value in the world of 'grower' Burgundy! 89 Pts (4 Stars) Jasper Morris MW A
