Auxey-Duresses Rouge Vieilles Vignes 2023 – Domaine Henri Latour | Elegant Pinot Noir with Burgundian depth
A hidden gem in the Côte de Beaune. The Auxey-Duresses Rouge Vieilles Vignes 2023 from Domaine Henri Latour is a perfect example of how this overlooked appellation produces red Burgundies that easily rival a fine Volnay — but at a more accessible price.
👃 Tasting Note – Juicy, earthy & elegantly structured
In the glass, this Pinot Noir shows a bright, clear red hue. The nose is inviting and layered with notes of blackcurrant, ripe cherry, cocoa, and a subtle hint of forest floor, typical of old vines rooted in limestone-rich soils.
On the palate, it is light yet intense, with a soft texture and beautifully rounded tannins that meld seamlessly with food. The fruit is fresh and pure, showing nuances of blackcurrant and red berries, complemented by a touch of spice and subtle oak notes thanks to 10 months of ageing in French oak barrels (2–4 years old). The finish is long, smooth and lingers with an elegant earthiness and vibrant acidity.
