    The Domaine Benoit Ente vineyard is situated on clay-limestone soils typical of Burgundy, which enhance the expression of the grape varieties. The vines are cultivated with care, respecting the principles of sustainable viticulture. The Burgundian climate, both continental and temperate, allows for optimal ripening of the grapes while preserving their acidity. This unique terroir imparts remarkable minerality and freshness to the estate's wines, characteristic of the region's great Aligoté wines.

    Owner and history

    Benoit Ente, the estate owner, is a passionate winemaker whose story is deeply intertwined with Burgundy. Trained by the region's leading figures, he has developed a personal and respectful approach to winemaking. His commitment to quality and terroir is reflected in every bottle.

    Vinification and aging

    The vinification of the 2020 Bourgogne Aligoté Antichtone is carried out with great care. The grapes, harvested by hand, are gently pressed to extract the juice. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, preserving the purity of the aromas. Aging on fine lees for a few months enriches the wine, giving it complexity and roundness. This meticulous process, combined with the absence of chaptalization, reveals the full richness of the Burgundy terroir and the authenticity of the Aligoté grape variety.

    The team's opinion

    This Bourgogne Aligoté impresses with its crystalline freshness, its aromas of citrus and white flowers, and its taut and elegant palate marked by a fine minerality.
