Tasting

To the eye

A ruby colour of fine intensity, clear and brilliant, with slightly brick-red highlights beginning to appear, reflecting its nine years of ageing.

Nose

A lively, open bouquet with notes of red berries (redcurrant, cherry) and peony. Once aerated, hints of white pepper and a touch of refined undergrowth bring a very elegant, woodland-like quality.

Palate

The attack is fresh and straightforward. On the palate, it offers a ‘vertical’ structure, with fine tannins that have been polished by time. This is a wine brimming with vitality, where the freshness of the 2017 vintage highlights a crisp and savoury texture. It displays the limestone minerality typical of Auxey, which adds depth to the wine as a whole.

Pairing

Perfect with salted pork and lentils, rabbit with Burgundy mustard, or hard cheeses such as a matured Morbier.

Aging potential

The 2017 vintage is characterised by its balance. Whilst it is delicious now, it will be able to maintain this level of maturity for the next 2 to 4 years.

Your questions, our answers.

What does this 2017 vintage prioritize over a very sun-ripened profile?

This 2017 emphasizes the balance between fruit ripeness and refreshing acidity rather than extended ripeness. It’s a useful reference point if you’re looking for a Pinot Noir that retains its tension without sacrificing fruit expression.

Does the oak dominate in this Auxey-Duresses?

According to the description, aging in barrels adds spicy complexity without masking the fresh red fruit. It therefore complements the wine’s expression rather than becoming its defining characteristic.

Why choose this bottle to explore the character of a valley red?

The description links its tension and linearity to the cool valley of Auxey-Duresses and its limestone marl soils. This bottle therefore offers a way to discover a Pinot Noir whose character relies not only on fruit, but also on its structure.

Does measured extraction mean that this wine lacks tannic structure?

No: the naturally firm tannins of this terroir remain part of its profile. Measured extraction is intended to keep them from becoming harsh, while aging has helped integrate the wine’s texture.

Does the stated freshness mean that the fruit is underripe?

No: the vintage is described as having produced grapes balanced between fruit ripeness and refreshing acidity. To appreciate it, these two dimensions should therefore be considered together rather than setting freshness against ripeness.

Mon français n'est pas excellent, mais Elodie m'a aidé par téléphone à faire un achat important pour offrir un cadeau pour le 60e anniversaire d'une amie. J'ai été très impressionnée par Elodie, et mon amie m'a informé que le vin était parfaitement emballé et livré par Elodie avec courtoisie et sourire. Merci Elodie - Tu as fait des fans aujourd'hui.
