Aligote is not my usual first stop, but a pedigree maker w age & a Becky Wasserman pick for under 25$ gets me revved up. The precision & balance is what gets me, while the varietal presents with some viscosity & sweetness- lovely. 12.5% alcohol. Scott imports

Trying not to let the new label affect my enjoyment regarding wine....wink, wink. 2017 is undoubtedly richer in youth than most vintages drunk previously. And there is an aldehydic inflection during finish. Hmmm....not the refined, linear snap I recall in the past.

Impressive. I wouldn't have thought a nine year old Aligote would have such kick.
