Auxey-Duresses AOC Rouge
Auxey-Duresses AOC Rouge displays a bright ruby red colour. The nose is beautifully balanced, combining rich aromas of small black fruits, including blackcurrant, blackberry, and bilberry, with delicate floral scents. While still young, it shows subtle tannins that will soften with age, developing a velvety texture and more pronounced aromas of leather and spice.
