Domaine LAFOUGE Auxey-Duresses "Les Boutonniers" 2018
$72.00 SGD
Wine Region: Burgundy - France
Grape: Chardonnay
Tasting notes: "Attractive aromas of green orchard fruit, white flowers and pastry cream, the 2017 Auxey-Duresses Les Hautés is medium-bodied, crisp and juicy, with lovely purity of fruit and an open-knit but succulent profile. If the Boutonniers is the more serious of Lafouge's two white Auxeys, this Hautés will win friends in the near-term." - Wine Advocate
About the winery:
Domaine Lafouge is a family estate established in Auxey-Duresses since 1650. For them, working the vines with respect for the terroir is essential, as is a style of wine combining finesse and elegance. The harvest has always been manual.
