The wine
The Auxey-Duresses Premier Cru is made from two plots of land: Les Breterins, which is responsible for its fruity element, and Les Duresses, lending density and structure for a powerful and elegant wine.
About the Producer Comte Armand
Domaine du Comte Armand, also known as Domaine des Epeneaux, has enjoyed a good reputation for a long time but it has increased its recognition since the arrival of Benjamin Leroux who has steered the wines towards more refinement and elegance. However, the different cuvées have kept one of the characteristic features of this area which is to produce powerful and rich wines. The cuvée of Clos des Epeneaux is particularly renowned and all the wines of Domaine Comte Armand are today considered a reference point in Burgundy. The domaine is now run organically.
