Comte Armand : Auxey-Duresses 1er cru 2017

Wine Advocate-Parker :
Aromas of wild berries, plums, dried flowers and a judicious framing of new wood introduce the 2017 Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru, a medium-bodied wine with a crunchy core of fruit, tangy acids and chewy tannins. When compared with the village Auxey, there's more depth here, and more structure too, and if it doesn't round out with further élevage, it will certainly require some time. As usual, the cuvée is a blend of Bretterins and Duresses.
