Bourgogne Aligoté Comte Armand 2019

The wine

Domaine du Comte Armand's Aligoté is the product of a blend of young 20-year-old vines planted near Pommard and old 90-year-old vines from the commune of Meursault. It has benefited from ten months' élevage on the lees in casks. Tasting reveals a lively, taut, subtle wine with great substance.

About the Producer Comte Armand

Domaine du Comte Armand, also known as Domaine des Epeneaux, has enjoyed a good reputation for a long time but it has increased its recognition since the arrival of Benjamin Leroux who has steered the wines towards more refinement and elegance. However, the different cuvées have kept one of the characteristic features of this area which is to produce powerful and rich wines. The cuvée of Clos des Epeneaux is particularly renowned and all the wines of Domaine Comte Armand are today considered a reference point in Burgundy. The domaine is now run organically.
