Pataille has Chardonnay and Aligoté in his 0.17-hectare holdings of La Charme Aux Prêtres, a beautiful, east-facing, sloping vineyard located at 280 to 320 metres’ altitude. Pataille’s 0.10-hectres of old-vine Aligoté Doré (planted in 1950) lie at the foot of the vineyard on ostrea acuminata marl. As with the wine above, Pataille credits the marl soils here with the smoky, reductive minerality he typically finds in this cuvée

Reviews

“A little deeper in colour and with a touch of oxidation at the moment, which will disappear. Slightly drier behind, with its classical tension. Less my style of wine but with interest. Dried peach skins? There is a slight residual bitterness, which may derive from the clay soil, Sylvain suggests. Drink from 2025-2030.”
86-88 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
“A more airy, less focused, aromatic but with fine depth. This is the reverse in the mouth—more direct, almost chiselled—but not overtly acidic. Just a beautiful structure—a little chalky texture in this finish. I love it!”
Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report
