Domaine Lafouge Auxey-Duresses 'Les Boutonniers' 2021 Review
Burgundy's Côte De Beaune is home to some of the purest — and most expensive — expressions of the Chardonnay grape. But there are some gems out there that won’t cost the house like this amazing wine from the Auxey-Duresses village. It has a mineral-driven nose and a rich, deep palate. This bottle exudes the elegance and finesse expected of wines from this region, and at a reasonable price.
