    Description of Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru Rouge

    Estate

    Domaine Comte Armand is a renowned estate located in Burgundy, known for the quality and finesse of its wines produced in the Côte de Beaune. This family-run domaine carries on traditional winemaking practices that respect the terroir and heritage.

    Vineyard

    The vineyard is situated in the commune of Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru within the Côte de Beaune. The selected plots benefit from limestone soils, providing optimal conditions for the expression of Pinot Noir, the noble grape of this appellation.

    Wine

    This Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru red perfectly illustrates the elegant and structured style of Domaine Comte Armand. Made exclusively from Pinot Noir, the wine shows beautiful aromatic expression and cellar craftsmanship that ensure its finesse and complexity.

    Vintage

    The 2021 vintage faced challenging weather but ultimately resulted in balanced grape maturity. Wines from this year showcase notable freshness and good concentration, highlighting the typicity of Burgundy terroirs.

    Vinification & Aging

    Vinification relies on traditional methods adapted for Pinot Noir, with careful temperature control during fermentation. Aging in oak barrels refines the tannins and gently integrates oak aromas without overpowering the wine’s pure fruit character.

    Grape Variety

    100% Pinot Noir
