Domaine de Cassiopée
White WineCassiopée “En Gerlius” Bourgogne Aligoté 2022
Brand new estate in the heart of Sampigny-les-Maranges in 2020, Domaine de Cassiopée is run by Talloulah and Hugo Mathurin who are working hard to make a mark on this under the radar appellation. Domaine de Cassiopée sits on the eastern end within close proximity to the premier cru vineyards.
The Bourgogne Rouge En Gerlieus vineyard is right beside the fabulous aligoté, with vines between 50 and 70 years old. In the ’22, they used only 15% whole clusters, yet this produces a slightly more structured wine. It will need a fair amount of time to fully reveal its intense, cool fruit and stony terroir. There is some reduction; note: Some of the previous wines have required a thorough decanting to shed the reduction.
