Domaine Goisot Bourgogne Aligoté 2025

Biodynamic. Goisot’s old-vine Aligoté is drawn from parcels of mature vines planted on the high, cool slopes of Saint-Bris. Aligoté is notorious for requiring old vines and suitable soils to produce wines of high quality and Goisot’s holdings nail the brief. The core vineyards include a parcel of 90-year-old Aligoté Doré planted on the high slopes of an old Chardonnay terroir northwest of Saint-Bris. This soil, known as Barrémien, is made up of ancient, dense clay littered with blue-grey fossilised oyster shells, several inches long. Then there is a grouping of 45-year-old vines in the lieux-dits of Croix Rougeot, Côte de Coutance and Côte de la Canne, near Goisot’s Exogyra Virgula vineyard.
