Sylvain Pataille, Bourgogne Aligoté Auvonnes au Pépé 2022
White Wine from France - Burgundy
Sylvain Pataille makes eight aligotés, including several single-vineyard examples such as this one. Made from a tiny 0.10ha vineyard planted in the 1930s, this is the fruitiest of Pataille's aligotés, with a the scent of an English hedgerow and a bright appley flavour. It's a medium-bodied all-rounder combining, freshness and minerality in a measured and proportionate way. Sylvain trained as an oenologist in Bordeaux and is consultant to a number of domaines in Burgundy. He began in 2001 with four hectares, and now has 20 mainly en fermage, on 25-year rental agreements.

Domaine Sylvain Pataille
Sylvain Pataille is an exciting young grower in Marsannay. He trained as an oenologist in Bordeaux, and still consults to 15 or so domaines in Burgundy. His family had 4ha of vines in 1905, but lost them during difficult financial times. He began in 2001 with 4ha and now has 14ha mainly en fermage, on 25 year rental agreements, which are undergoing conversion to biodynamic cultivation. He makes white from aligoté and a selection of chardonnay rosé, whose skin turns pink when ripe, as well as rosé and red. He aims for very low yields in the reds of 35hl/ha.
