  • Goedhuis, December 2022

    Surprisingly dark colour, flavours of liquorice, coffee bean, spiced vanilla oak and Morello cherry. A fuller and richer bodied Auxey Duresses and less mineral than some years. Good length and certain to give pleasure.

  • Neal Martin, January 2023, Score: 86-88

    The 2021 Auxey-Duresses Village has a well-defined and focused bouquet with vibrant blackberry and blueberry fruit, hints of crushed stone and iris flower. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, dark cherry and blueberry fruit, a little more extraction than its peers with a sweet cassis-tinged finish. Drink 2024-2023

  • Jasper Morris MW, December 2022, Score: 87-88

    3 barrels instead of 9. No new wood. Fullish purple colour and quite a dark fruit on the nose, showing a touch of reduction on the palate, good acidity and a fruit which follows all the way through. Drink from 2025-2028.

Clos des Épeneaux is Pommard’s most celebrated climat. The 5.23 hectare monopole has been in the Comte Armand family since 1828. Paul Zinetti took over from Benjamin Leroux as régisseur in 2014, and is rising to every challenge at this small, characterful domaine. They also have small holdings in Volnay and Auxey Duresses and, while these wines have the distinctive character of quintessential Côte de Beaune, they are also some of the most sophisticated, nuanced expressions you might taste across these villages. An understated use of new oak matches the textured fruit, and gentle handling in combination with intuitive biodynamic practices afford these wines both strength and delicacy. The domaine has begun to noticeably outpace its neighbours and redefine how the finest terroir of Pommard is capable of not only power but elegance as well.Read less

Region

Auxey Duresses

Auxey Duresses is a lesser known appellation of 107 hectares located in the eastern hills above Meursault. Its slightly cooler climate with mostly north facing slopes enable its wines to be particularly crisp, fresh and occasionally austere in less warm vintages. Though three-quarters of its production is white, there are a handful of growers who produce reds. Due to its more modest status, its wines tend to provide excellent value for money . They are well worth seeking out particularly in warmer vintages.
