High quality at this domaine begins already with a 2006 Bourgogne Aligote from 70 year old vines and a fast-draining site on the “wrong” side of the route nationale that he calls “ideal” for this grape variety. A vivid, almost pulpy sense of lemon and pineapple is allied to toasty, nutty richness and leads to a juicy yet subtly stony finish. There is no reason to expect this to fade for at least 3-4 years. Ente began picking September 13, finishing in six days. The result is wines of consistent clarity and refreshment, as well as full of nuances that call forth a mineral vocabulary. Use of demi-muids rather than barriques to raise many of the wines here helps ward off any overt woodiness. Eighty percent of Ente’s wine is exported, most of that to the U.S. and U.K.Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel (510) 524-1524
