March 1, 2022 - My last bottle of this vintage, and I'm bumping my score up a point. High palate cleansing acidity, with lemon (almost like a sour patch gummy) and floral notes on the nose and palate. I had this with my wine group and we all enjoyed it to varying degrees.

August 10, 2021 - My first bottle of Aligote from this producer and I really liked it. High acidity, with lemon and floral notes on the nose and palate. I should note that if rated on the nose alone, I'd give it a 93, so really the taste was not as good as the nose led me to expect. Still a really nice "start the evening" wine. It also went well with some chilled sugar snap pea and mint soup. The only thing really keeping it from a higher score, was some bitter notes when we got about halfway through the bottle.

December 4, 2020 - Clean fresh sea air aromas. Palate is acid driven with a nice lemon curd cut to the fruit. Very well made and quite integrated and balanced for a relatively simpler grape. Planted in 1986 and 1/2 acre. Only white wine made by Bachelet. Quite nice and refreshing.
