2022 Bourgogne Aligoté En Coulezain, Les Horées

2022 Bourgogne Aligoté En Coulezain, Les Horées

Catharina’s Aligoté has earned a huge following.The fruit comes from two side-by-side plots in Volnay, and in 2022 she’s given one third of the fruit some time to macerate on its skins, later blending it with wine fermented from the grapes that were pressed straight away. This method gives the wine an edgy freshness, with just a hint of phenolic grip adding an extra dimension to the wine.

Les Horées

German-born, trained chef Catharina Sadde has one of Burgundy’s most impressive CVs. Her fearless determination to succeed, despite being a relative newcomer in Burgundy, has seen her estate’s reputation rocket. She now makes some of the region’s most sought-after wines. Her skills were honed with stints at Domaine de la Romanée Conti, Domaine Comte Armand, Marquis d’Angerville, and Cécile Tremblay, having graduated from Germany’s most prestigious wine school, Geisenheim. Les Horées is the culmination of a decade of fine tuning her winemaking skills, buying up vineyards that she loves, and working closely with a few other grape growers who share her philosophy. She now works from her cellars in Beaune, has a penchant for the lesser-known Burgundy varieties, Aligoté and Gamay, alongside Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and is an enthusiastic practitioner of biodynamic farming.
