Auxey-Duresses is a relatively unknown village of the Côte de Beaune, tucked up above Meursault, next to Monthelie, on the way to St-Romain. This anonymity is in spite of its association with Lalou Bize-Leroy. Comte Armand's vines - in lieu-dit Largillas - sit just above her Les Clous vines. Largillas gives the most spectacular views of the pretty village, and have an enviable mid-slope position for a village parcel. It is always one of the best value and most characterful reds on our list. In 2023 it has a nervous, vibrant energy, with brilliant concentration and a fresh and juicy body.
The 2023 Auxey-Duresses Village was destemmed and aged in used barrels. It offers blackberry and blueberry fruit, a little muted at first but opening with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit. It is quite a juicy Auxey-Duresses, with a liberal sprinkling of black pepper on the finish. This will drink well for several years.
