Bouchard Père & Fils - Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru Les Duresses 2017
The village of Auxey-Duresses nestles in a small valley between Meursault and Monthélie. Its vineyards are divided into three small areas, the most prestigious of which produces south-facing red Premiers Crus, such as Duresses, the appellation's most renowned parcel. A confidential red to be left to age, offering beautiful structure and character.

Rated estate (2023 guide) 4 stars (Producers of very high quality, those who are the pride of French vineyards)
About the estate:
From Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this large Beaune-based wine merchant founded in 1731 owns more than 142 plots covering 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of premier and grand cru vineyards. This first-rate wine-growing heritage enables Frédéric Weber, a talented winemaker who was previously in charge of Château de Poncié, to produce around 600,000 bottles out of the total three million units produced here each year, with most of the production coming from purchased grapes for the great reds and carefully selected musts for the whites other than those from the estate. Impressive success in both white and red wines in recent vintages.
