But I just don't consider myself expert enough to sit here and tell you definitively that a wine is bad. Bouzeron is the appellation created to showcase the Aligot é grape. Wines made from Aligot é should be crisp and lean and fresh. can't imagine that the wine was supposed to be aged - it's Aligot é for goodness sake.

We went there for lunch on our last day in Burgundy and although we had a very nice time, on this occasion Gourmet got it wrong. There were most definitely no vignerons - this is tourist group dining all the way. Sure, it would have been E40, but that version included tasting only 5 wines, the entry-level Aligote and Bourgogne wines.
