Note di degustazione
The 2002 Auxey-Duresses Blanc Les Boutonniers is absolutely extraordinary, soaring from the glass with a delicately honeyed bouquet of buttered yellow orchard fruit and flowers, complemented by subtle top notes of beeswax and petrol. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, multidimensional and satiny, with an elegantly textural attack, considerable mid-palate depth and pristine delineation. As my score suggests, this Boutonniers embarrasses many grands crus from other producers in this vintage. While it's already beautifully expressive I'd expect it to continue to drink at this level for another dozen years.

Bright yellow. Knockout nose combines melon, passion fruit, lemon, smoke and spices. Thick, sweet and rich, with terrific depth of flavor. Fruit flavors are perfectly framed by the oak spice. This boasts an enveloping texture and mount s impressively on the back, showing superb persistence. These wines really transcend their appellation.
