Comte Armand

2009 Comte Armand Auxey-Duresses 1er

By billn on March 22, 2011

A blend of two premier crus. Nervous, quite wide then a darker depth with some mineral/coal – a very interesting nose. Good balance and a lovely, lovely length – actually the length is the defining feature of this wine – really super!

The nose has quite a heavy central fruit. In the mouth this seems much more elegant than the nose; supple and very, very wide. I see the Volnay in the flavours if not (yet) on the nose.

A deeper nose with hints of reduction – certainly more open-knit than the villages. The tannins have a little more ‘grab’ – but not in a negative sense. Just a little more complexity here.
