Prunier Auxey Duresess blanc 19

Neal Martin on Prunier’s 2019s: “they might not oblige superlatives, yet they represent honest and true reflections of their terroirs…considering that these continue to be sold at very reasonable prices, they are certainly worth looking out for.”

The village-level Auxey-Duresses blanc has been a reader favorite in recent years, and it’s not hard to see why: it’s easy, accessible, low oak white Burgundy with excellent balance. Martin found “a smooth and quite honeyed opening, yet there is acidity here to keep everything in balance.” He concluded “fine early drinking white Burgundy.”
