The 2022 Domaine Jean-Marc et Thomas Bouley Auxey-Duresses Blanc is a refined Burgundy Chardonnay from the Côte de Beaune, showcasing the elegance and mineral precision of this lesser-known appellation near Meursault. The nose is expressive and layered, with pear, apple and citrus zest complemented by white flowers, toasted almond and subtle pastry notes.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a silky texture, offering orchard fruit, hazelnut and a gentle creamy richness balanced by fresh acidity and a limestone-driven mineral edge. The finish is long, clean and quietly savoury, combining finesse with depth.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great value white Burgundy and an excellent alternative to Meursault. Ideal for customers who enjoy elegant Chardonnay with subtle oak, texture and minerality. Not overly rich—focused on balance, freshness and finesse. Drink now or over the next 5–7 years. Perfect with roast chicken, seafood, creamy dishes or soft cheeses.
