Tasting notes
(Roulot gets this fruit through a métayage arrangement): Bright lemon-yellow color. Lemon candy dominates the nose. Very tight, even tough, today, with a strong citrus character accentuating the slightly phenolic finish. I find this rigid in the early going but it's just a baby.

The 2014 Auxey Duresses Blanc, matured in 15% to 20% new oak, has a low-key bouquet that opens with time, with lime flower, a touch of white tea and Granny Smiths. The palate is well balanced with a fine line of acidity and vibrant citrus fruit that just ease off towards the finish, which shows impressive persistence. This is a very fine Auxey-Duresses from Jean-Marc Roulot.
