Mercurey Les Boueres Rouge, Les Champs de Thémis, 2021 / 2022
From vines planted in 1934 this vineyard of golden Aligote has an expression of floral notes and orange blossom on the nose. Slightly broader on the palate than Les Clos, Les Courcels is more savoury. Great minerality on the finish. Piquant thanks to alert acidity softened by the use of older oak barrels. This is standout Aligote.
New on the Irish market, the Côte Chalonnaise selection from Xavier Moissenet of Les Champs de Thémis. Organically farmed with minimal sulphur usage, they offer great value and incredible depth from such young domaine.
