Aligoté spent most of its life as Burgundy's afterthought — the grape you topped with crème de cassis — and bottles like this one are why that has changed. Le Crétot à Droite is a single parcel at Bouze-lès-Beaune, up in the hills west of Beaune, where limestone and marl give Aligoté the tension and salinity it needs to stand on its own. Alexandra Couvreur farms it without herbicides or pesticides and makes the wine plainly, with a long, unhurried élevage in old wood and nothing showy laid over the top. Production is very small, and the wine drinks with real cut: taut, saline, and a long way from kir.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Oysters and raw shellfish, gougeres, sole meuniere, fresh goat cheese, or a plate of jambon persille.

Tasting Profile

Lemon, green apple and white flowers with a chalky, almost iodine edge. Bone dry and light-bodied, with bright acidity and a savory, saline finish. Air brings out almond and dried herbs.
