Bouzeron2022–DomaineSylvainPataille

This Bouzeron 2022 by Sylvain Pataille is a striking example of what Aligoté can offer when worked with precision and passion. Grown on the limestone and clay-limestone soils of the Côte Chalonnaise, in the small village appellation of Bouzeron, it immediately reveals the unique character of its terroir: finesse, minerality and elegance. The estate’s meticulous work, respectful of the vines and the ripeness of the grapes, gives the wine a lively tension and remarkable freshness. The nose opens with delicate floral and citrus notes, while on the palate the texture is both supple and dynamic, supported by perfectly balanced acidity. This Bouzeron illustrates the typical characteristics of the AOC: a noble, lively, precise Aligoté of rare elegance, which is both accessible today and capable of revealing more with a few years in the cellar. Perfect as an aperitif or with delicate dishes such as shellfish, grilled fish or poultry with herbs, this wine reflects Sylvain Pataille’s expertise and the exceptional potential of Aligoté in Bouzeron.
