Taste Block

Tasting Notes

It opens with crisp pear, bright lemon notes, and a subtle smoky note that’s immediately followed by a clean streak of minerality. The wine's texture is particularly striking: smooth and weighty, yet not heavy, with a nuanced richness that unfolds across the palate.

Pairing Block

Food Pairing

With its high acidity, minerality, and precise citrus-driven profile, this Aligoté pairs exceptionally well with seafood—think oysters on the half shell, grilled shrimp, or pan-seared white fish. Its crisp structure cuts through richness and salt, making it an ideal companion to fried seafood or smoked fish, while its clean finish keeps the palate sharp.

About the Producer

Bitouzet-Prieur is a domaine built on deep roots and consistency. Vincent Bitouzet, a dedicated classicist, has spent over three decades producing wines of clarity and longevity from the heart of the Côte de Beaune, and his son François now works alongside him, carrying that legacy forward. The domaine’s 12 hectares span some of the region’s most respected vineyard sites, and their vineyard work is rigorous: organic practices, no synthetic treatments, manual harvesting, and careful selection. In the cellar, classic methods are the rule—native yeasts, limited new oak, and a hands-off approach that lets each wine speak for itself.
