2023/24 Auxey-Duresses, Ropiteau Freres bruichladdich som sagtens kan måle sigClosed between Volnay and Meursault, lie Auxey Duresses, which with only 150 ha is a small production with less than 4,000 bottles annually. 100% Chardonnay with undertones of green apples and peaches. Fine minerality that goes hand in hand with the acidity and gives an absolutely fantastic smooth wine with a good long aftertaste. Should be stored for a few years and can therefore be drunk from 2024.
