Aligote Wines
Aligote is a white grape variety from the Burgundy region of France, known for producing fresh and light wines with high acidity and citrus flavors. Aligote wines often exhibit notes of green apple, lemon, and occasionally a hint of flint. The ABV typically ranges from 11-13%. It is popular in the production of Kir, a traditional French cocktail made by mixing Aligote with crème de cassis.
Grown in the lesser-known vineyards of Burgundy, Aligote thrives in the region's limestone-rich soils. Despite being overshadowed by Chardonnay, Aligote has a dedicated following and is cherished for its refreshing qualities and ability to pair well with a variety of dishes. Its role in the classic Kir cocktail also helps maintain its popularity, offering a unique and traditional expression of French viticulture.
