The Bader-Mimeur is a 100% aligoté. The wine is light golden in color with sparkling reflections. Typical nose of lime, wild flowers and a vetetal touch. A full-bodied, generous aligoté that provides a refreshing aftertaste with its crunchy fruit.

Bader – Mimeur is located at the bottom of the famous vineyards of Montrachet. Since the seventeenth century, the BADER-MIMEUR family has owned and managed vines in and around Chassagne-Montrachet for more than ten generations, especially in the Côte de BEAUNE. Charles BADER, Marie Pierette NIE and the son of PHILIPPE BADER, were wine merchants in “Halle-aux-Vins” in Paris. He married Elise MIMEUR in 1920, whose father, Charles MIMEUR, owned the "Domaine du Château de Chassagne-Montrachet". The name BADER-MIMEUR was born. The domain has been run by brother and sister since 2017; Sebastien Fossier and Nathalie Bernard. From the 17th century, the Bader-Nié family owned vineyards in Chassagne-Montrachet and its surroundings, while Charles Mimeur, a winegrower from the Maranges region, became the owner of the Château de Chassagne-Montrachet in 1919. Since 2017, Nathalie Bernard and her brother Sébastien Fossier the day-to-day management of Baeder-Mimeur.

Guide Gilbert & Gaillard 2021: "Pale gold color, sparkling reflections. Typically engaging nose, with accents of limes, field flowers, vegetal touch. A frank, full-bodied, generous aligoté, offering a nice tangy sensation. The fruit is crunchy, present, the finish very invigorating."

FACT: The Aligoté grape is a cross between the Pinot and Gouais grapes. For most people, white Burgundy is made from chardonnay. Yet for some time now a relatively unknown, but typically Burgundian grape has been quietly on the rise: called aligoté! This image began to change when a celebrity in the wine world managed to draw attention to aligoté. Aubert de Villaine of Domaine Romanée-Conti, together with his wife, owns a small domain in Bouzeron, a small commune in the Côte Chalonnaise, just south of the Côte de Beaune. Aligoté is the specialty in Bouzeron!
