ABOUT THIS WINE

Sourced from cool-climate vineyards in Sonoma County, the 2022 Jolie-Laide Aligoté is made from the Aligoté grape, a lesser-known variety from Burgundy that thrives in California’s coastal regions. The grapes are hand-harvested to ensure freshness and balance, with fermentation occurring in stainless steel to preserve the bright, natural acidity. The wine is aged on its lees for a few months, enhancing its texture and complexity while maintaining its lively, fresh character. This wine is a beautiful example of Aligoté’s potential outside of its native Burgundy, delivering clarity, vibrancy, and finesse.
