INSPIRATION
23 September 20241 min read

When one of the world’s top white wine producers takes on Chardonnay's tricky yet increasingly trendy sibling, Aligoté, can the result be anything less than exceptional?
Clotilde Davenne is best known in Sweden for her acclaimed sparkling wine, Clotilde Davenne Crémant de Bourgogne. The wine has been named Sparkling Wine of the Year multiple times and has received nearly every award a wine can earn. However, Clotilde primarily produces still wines, especially white wines from Chablis and the broader Burgundy region. It's no surprise she has earned the title "Queen of Chablis."
One of Aligoté's biggest advocates is Aubert de Villaine of the legendary Romanée-Conti.
And this is where Clotilde Davenne's precision and dedication shine. "Crisp acidity, fresh aromas and flavors, and a long, clean finish" applies to nearly all her wines. Her latest release, Bourgogne Aligoté, is no exception.
In short, if you're looking for an elegant, outstanding-value white wine, this may just be the perfect choice.
Clotilde Davenne’s new Aligoté is available now at Systembolaget.
