Domaine Lafouge (Jean et Gilles Lafouge)
La Chapelle Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru Pinot Noir
Med concentration with a magenta core fading out to a clear rim. Med intensity and complexity on the nose showing just ripened red fruit, red flowers, orange, slight baking spices, and milk chocolate. The palate had decent structure with some dryness to the edgy tannins, and med + acid. Med complexity showing less definition than the nose. Tannins are a touch out of whack but otherwise balance is fine. Med length. #domainelafouge #auxeyduresses #premiercru #pinotnoir #burgundy #cotedebeaune #ctbucklinwine
