NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Benjamin Leroux Auxey-Duresses is a bright, zesty white wine that offers delightful aromas of white flowers, citrus, and stone fruits.On the palate, this wine is crisp and vibrant, with juicy flavors of peach, lime, and a hint of honey. Its lively acidity is well-balanced by a pleasant minerality and a touch of richness on the finish. This is an excellent example of a traditional Burgundy white wine.
