An elegant wine, with an almost crunchy, bright pomegranate and red cherry fruit touched with floral notes. The texture is light and fresh, but not lacking substance. This delightful wine is produced from the 0.36ha of Pinot planted in Monthélie in the lieux-dits Les Jouènes and Les Gamets. The fruit is all destemmed and cold soaked before fermentation in vat.
Rated 92/100 Decanter Magazine
2017 Domaine Roulot Auxey Duresses 1er Cru Rouge...$159.99
"Roulot's only premier cru bottling of red grapes, the Auxey is perfect for those who enjoy an ethereal, mineral-driven style of Pinot Noir. The nose presents a harmonious medley of dark berries and spice, while the palate echoes the taut, crystalline character of the domaine's white wines. A chalky core underpins this red that will drink beautifully for at least the next decade." - Kermit Lynch, importer
