Hickinbotham of DromanaAligote 2015
About this product
Aligoté plays the Robin role to Chardonnay's Batman in Burgundy, where it produces crisp, sharp, if neutral dry whites, with a lemony tang of acidity. You can understand why aligoté is traditionally used to add a bit of verve and bite to the local crème de cassis to make Kir, or Champagne for Kir Royale. Peach & melon is overlaid with nuts to achieve this wine uncanny complexity.

Full bodied white wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with good palate weight and full flavours.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.
