Domaine Les Astrelles Bourgogne Aligoté ‘Les Lares’

The palate is bright, mineral, and finely shaped, opening with green apple, pear skin, and lemon zest. The acidity is crisp and linear, giving the wine a taut, refreshing drive that keeps the fruit lifted and precise. A subtle chalk‑dust and white‑clay minerality builds through the mid‑palate, adding savoury tension and echoing the limestone‑rich soils of Curtil‑Vergy. The mix of older oak and clay vessels brings a gentle roundness and quiet spice, without distracting from the wine’s purity. The finish is long, clean, and saline‑edged, tapering with notes of lime peel, white peach skin, and a faint herbal lift, leaving a sense of clarity and mineral persistence.
