Comte Armand, Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru 2005
Comte Armand, Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru 2005 A blend of one-third Les Duresses and two-thirds les Breterins, the Comte Armand 2005 Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru (from vines up to 80 years old) offers vivid aromas and flavors of black currant with a pleasantly bitter hint of fruit skin, impressive palate density and a juicy fresh cassis and bitter black chocolate finish. At over 14% alcohol and with an almost freakishly low pH (neither of which is directly noticeable) this looks on paper more like a Zinfandel or Barbera, but it is a formidable and fascinating Pinot I would bet on for 3-5 years of cellaring.
