This vintage pairs perfectly with grilled meat dishes, such as beef fillet or duck breast. The Auxey-Duresses can be enjoyed now, but it can also be cellared for an additional 5 to 8 years to further develop complexity and evolution. A wine that's ready to be experienced right away, although with a bit of necessary decanting first. Very limited quantities available.
