Olivier Leflaive Auxey-Duresses 2022

The 2022 Olivier Leflaive Auxey-Duresses is a high-quality Chardonnay from the Côte de Beaune, crafted by one of Burgundy's most respected producers. Sourced from vineyards near the prestigious slopes of Meursault, it is known for its purity and finesse. The nose is fresh and precise, offering aromas of crisp green apple, fresh almond, and citrus zest, complemented by delicate floral hints and a touch of toastiness from 12 months of oak aging. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied yet soft, showcasing a silky texture beautifully balanced by lively acidity and a pronounced mineral character. The finish is long, elegant, and slightly saline, reflecting the unique calcareous clay and limestone terroir of the estate. 

Food Pairing: Perfectly complements grilled seafood, fish cooked in hot sauces, shrimp bisque, chicken gnocchi, or a sheep’s cheese like Ossau-Iraty.
