2022 Guy Amiot - Bourgogne Aligote Grands Champs (750ml)

• Sylvain Pataille is known for his organic and biodynamic farming practices, focusing on minimal intervention in the winemaking process. This means the wine is typically made with very few added sulfites, and the goal is to showcase the true nature of the fruit and terroir.
• Pataille often uses traditional methods, with fermentation in whole clusters and aging in French oak barrels (though usually with a lighter touch on the oak to preserve the purity of the fruit).

A custom cuvée for European Cellars and a joint project between Eric Solomon and Jean-Marc Lafage, Bastide Miraflors is a cuvée created from old vine Grenache (30%) grown on the schist and granite soils of Saint-Paul de Fenouillet, a terroir that always ripens late in the year, and Syrah (70%) from gravelly soils near the Mediterranean. After a long maceration of six weeks, the wine ages for 12 months in roughly 3/4 concrete vats and 1/4 600L French oak demi-muids.
