Terah Wine Aligoté, San Benito County 2024 (750ml) *

Aligoté is Burgundy's other white grape, the sharp-edged counterpart to Chardonnay, and it turns up here in an unexpected California setting: Terah Wine's 2024 bottling from San Benito County, inland from the Central Coast. The grape is prized for its brisk acidity and lean, citrus-driven profile, qualities that make it a natural fit for a cooler-leaning site and a fresh, unadorned style of white.
