Domaine Leflaive & Associes Auxey-Duresses 2022

Domaine Leflaive & Associés Auxey-Duresses 2022 offers a refined introduction to the domaine’s Chardonnay, combining Burgundy’s characteristic finesse with the depth of a village appellation near Meursault. Made from 100% Chardonnay, it reflects the growing reputation of Auxey-Duresses as a source of expressive, terroir-led white Burgundy.

Tasting Notes
Bright golden in colour, the wine opens with citrus and white-flower aromas, followed by hints of nuts and a subtle mineral note. The palate is lively, with fresh acidity, ripe stone fruit and a gently creamy texture, finishing on a long, mineral-edged note. Enjoy it young for its freshness, or cellar for around five to eight years to allow further development.

Production
The Chardonnay comes from vineyards in Auxey-Duresses, close to Meursault, where the wines share some of the neighbouring appellation’s character while retaining their own sense of finesse. Following Domaine Leflaive’s biodynamic approach, the grapes are hand-harvested and naturally fermented with minimal intervention. Maturation in French oak, with a balanced proportion of new barrels, adds complexity while preserving the purity of the fruit.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled, around 10–12°C. It pairs well with shellfish, simply prepared fish and lighter poultry dishes. A brief period in the glass should allow the aromas to open; decanting is generally not essential, though a short decant can be useful if the wine seems reserved.

Producer
Domaine Leflaive is one of Burgundy’s best-known white-wine producers, with a reputation built on expressive Chardonnay and a committed approach to biodynamic viticulture. This Auxey-Duresses offers a chance to explore the producer’s style in a less familiar village appellation, with both freshness and Burgundy’s characteristic complexity.
