Decanter
Reviewed January 2023Clos du Roy is another outstanding terroir in Chenôve that Pataille farms. He has a small 0.18-hectare site that was planted to Aligoté Doré between 1932 – 1948 in thin, gravelly limestone soils. He weaves the vine tips together (‘tressage') and farms with a horse. The resulting wine has incredible complexity and depth of flavour, with notes of gooseberry, tarragon, mineral, and hay and a million exotic flavours that reveal themselves on the palate. Truly a delight. (CC)

Burghound
A classic aligoté nose reflects notes of green apple, spice and a variety of citrus nuances that are
picked up by the racy, intense and delicious middleweight flavors and particularly so on the very dry, moderately austere and
sneaky long finish. This should drink well shortly after release.

Wine Advocate
Offering up notes of mint, lemon oil, pear and grapefruit zest, the 2021 Bourgogne Aligoté is medium-bodied, with a satiny attack, tangy acids and a taut, somewhat compact profile. (WK)

Vinous
The 2021 Bourgogne Aligoté has a pretty nose with light white flower and citrus notes. The palate is well balanced with a spicy opening, fine acidity with a touch of green lemon on the finish. Fine. (NM)
