This Aligoté Vieilles Vignes comes from a plot planted in 1933 in the Lieu-dit Loigny in Saint-Bris-le-Vineux. Due to the very old age of the vineyard, this Aligoté grows with exceptional depth and aging potential.
Unlike usual, this Aligoté is not only suitable for direct drinking but should definitely not be used for Kir.
Originally, Aligoté was always used in Kir. Nowadays, this is no longer common and in any case a waste for this wine.

Clotilde Davenne
Clotilde Davenne is one of the most dynamic winemakers in Burgundy, and many already call her the new Grande Dame of Chablis. For 17 years, she worked as a winemaker at the renowned Domaine Brocard, where she earned an outstanding reputation. In 2004, she produced her first own wine at her Domaine Les Temps Perdus, located in Préhy, 7.5 km southwest of Chablis, which today covers 23 hectares. Besides the magnificent Chablis, her passion also extends to lesser-known appellations such as Yonne. She is particularly proud of vineyards in Saint-Bris and Irancy, where she has exceptionally old vines. Here, she owns parcels with vines over 115 years old of Sauvignon blanc and 85 years old Aligoté.
