This Aligote comes from Henri Germain, a small, highly regarded Meursault domaine where Jean-Francois Germain farms organically, keeps yields low, hand-harvests, and uses little new oak. Aligote is Burgundy's overlooked second white grape, but in careful hands like these it sings. The 2021 was a cool, classic vintage marked by high acidity and tension, so this leans crisp and energetic, the more racy counterpoint to warmer years. It's the kind of bright, food-loving white that punches well above its station. Serve it well chilled.

More about Henri Germain

Jean-François Germain runs seven hectares of Meursault, Chassagne-Montrachet, and Beaune from a cellar so cold it's legendary. His daughter Lucie joined in 2018, and together they're making whites (three-quarters of production) with the kind of tautness and concentration that gets allocations and whispered about in restaurants. Lutte raisonnée, hand-harvested, traditionally vinified—the Burgundy way that actually works.
