Sylvain Pataille

Grape Variety: Aligoté

Producer: Sylvain Pataille

Region: Marsannay, Burgundy, France

Wild Scale: 2/5

Vegan friendly wine

Winemaking: Organic/biodynamic Aligoté grapes were hand harvested from two different plots. Fermentation in stainless steel (1/3) and old barrels (2/3) with indigenous yeast. Aged for 12 months and bottled with a touch of filtration and added sulphur.

This Wine: A rare chance to experience Sylvain's Aligoté with 4 years of age! 

Notes on the Winemaker: Sylvain Pataille is an expert Burgundian winemaker who independently consults for over 20 other producers in the region but also uses biodynamic practices to farm his own 17 hectares in and around the Marsannay appellation. He has the rare ability to create reds and whites of equal prestige (and even rosé too) and uses minimal sulphur and new oak.
