2020 Domaine Michel Briday Bouzeron Cuvée Axelle Aligoté
Pale yellow. Lemons and pears with assertive acidity, reduction creeps in toward the end of the first glass and gets stronger during the 2nd. Could be mistaken for a Chablis.

Not a producer I know (but actually only Bouzeron producer I know is Villaine.though I drink Aligote from elsewhere).
Strange reduction worsening.
Thanks for note.

Yeah, vs. improving, thought so too. My first time with this producer. Only other Bouzeron I've had was a Ramonet. These were procured by a friend who said this was as good as Roulot and Ramonet. I don't agree--at least re Roulot, which I had recently. Creamier, apple-y and elegant compared to the lemon and matchstick here.
