"Beautiful complexity and freshness".
"Still young, this Auxey-Duresses is rich and creamy, but retains a lovely freshness, with aromas of lemon tart and lemon blossom giving it brightness in a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel. Discreet and well-integrated, it presents a lemony complexity in a long, silky finish. Made from organically grown grapes. Drink now or cellar. (James Suckling 2024)
