Domaine Lafouge Auxey-Duresses 2017 Color:Red “This is no ordinary ryeThe 2017 Auxey Duresses Les Boutonniers is lovely, bursting with expressive aromas of pear, citrus oil and white flowers. On the palate, it's medium to full bodied, textural and fleshy, with lovely purity, succulent acids and a lingering, mineral finish. This is Auxey Duresses at its best and a wine that will rival many a Meursault for a fraction of the price.
