Domaine Rougeot Bourgogne Aligoté “Les Plumes” Nature 2022
An expressive white that captures the freshness and clarity of Burgundy’s regional Aligoté style. Domaine Rougeot is based in Savigny les Beaune, where careful, sustainable vineyard work and a gentle, natural approach in the cellar allow the purity of the fruit and the character of the soils to shine. In “Les Plumes,” Aligoté’s bright acidity and lively fruit profile are front and centre.
This wine opens with enticing aromas of green apple, citrus blossom and pear, with a subtle hint of white flowers and chalky mineral notes that reflect its clay and limestone soils. On the palate it is crisp and energetic, with zesty acidity carrying the fruit through a clean, refreshing finish that feels both precise and effortless. “Les Plumes” is a lively and authentic expression of Aligoté, offering a bright, refreshing wine that feels true to place and to the thoughtful hands that crafted it.
