Aug 14th, 2016Well made wine just no fireworks. Carries Fichet's signature style of precision and tension between fruit, mineral & acidity but didn't quite inspire the wide mouth grin.

Dec 2nd, 2015More fleshed out than when tasted previously, but arguably soft-er, not very complex, and moderately short finish. Getting it done as far as "mouth rinse" but not as impressive as many other Aligote.
