The 2018 Pierre Boisson Auxey Duresses En Reugne 1er Cru is a testament to skilled winemaking in a hot vintage, where the vineyard's elevation (300m up on a hill) and cool winds helped avoid overly tropical flavors. This wine is considered 【an underdog that can challenge many famed Meursaults, showing great richness and balance】. It presents a pale yellow color with elegant golden reflections. The aroma is rich with notes of ripe peaches, apricots, and mangoes, intertwined with floral nuances and delicate hints of vanilla and oak. Further complexity emerges with scents of hazelnuts, grilled popcorn, marzipan, yellow fruits, and marjoram. On the palate, it is rich and harmonious, with concentrated ripe peach and apricot flavors, balanced acidity, and a long, minerally rich finish. It offers a rich, opulent, and concentrated mouthfeel, with succulent acids and excellent mineral persistency, often described as very Meursault-like in its character. Other tasting notes include tart peach, juicy citrus fruit, lemon skin, flint, wet stones, apple, green pear, and a pure, chalky finish. 🍴 This elegant white Burgundy pairs beautifully with fish dishes, various seafood, and white meats. 🥂 Ideal for a sophisticated dinner, or for a tasting where you want to surprise guests by comparing it side-by-side with more renowned Meursault wines.
