Bourgogne Aligoté Les Fortunés

Other White Grape or Blend

Maison Chanzy Bourgogne Aligoté “Les Fortunés” is a classic expression of Burgundy’s second white grape. Lively, approachable, and versatile, it is a benchmark Aligoté suited for both everyday enjoyment and refined dining.

Wine Production

Fermentation occurs in temperature‑controlled stainless steel tanks to maintain vibrant freshness and crisp varietal character. The wine then ages for eight months in stainless steel vats and foudres, ensuring a clean, mineral‑driven profile.

Tasting Notes

This wine shows a lively, youthful profile with crisp acidity and a chiselled texture that highlights Aligoté’s natural freshness. On the palate, it is supple yet energetic, offering clean, precise flavors of citrus, pear, and a touch of saline minerality.

Food Pairing

Pair with oysters, shellfish, or light aperitifs
