Discover Bouzeron Blanc, a rare gem from the Cote Chalonnaise, produced exclusively with 100% Aligote. Nestled in the small, prestigious appellation of Bouzeron, this wine is the only village appellation in Burgundy dedicated to the expressive Aligote grape-a unique crossing of gouais and pinot noir. This tiny region near Rully comprises just 47 hectares, resulting in a wine that is as exclusive as it is distinctive. Meticulously fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged in large oak barrels (30% new), Bouzeron Blanc embodies both freshness and elegance, proudly representing the outstanding heritage of Burgundy's whites. It is the perfect companion for light, refined dishes, such as fresh shellfish or mild goat's cheese salads.
