2018 Auxey Duresses Blanc, Jean Pascal

2018 Auxey Duresses Blanc, Jean Pascal

Ref: PASC181
White  |  Still  |  13.5% ABV

The first Pascal arrived in Puligny in the early 20th century, marrying a local girl and working on the land. They had two sons and acquired some vineyards locally. During a lull of interest in burgundy sales they moved into vine production. Throughout the 1970s the domaine expanded to 15 hectares spread over four communes: Meursault; Puligny; Volnay, and Auxey. Today, Yann Pascal looks after the vineyards, whilst his wife Alexandra makes the wine and is responsible for sales.

Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes

Nose here is initially quite reserved, but give it a shake and mineral aromas backing lime-scented fruit emerge. The palate offers instant freshness of green orange acidity cached within the  rich, spice-dotted, green apple fruit. There's mineral dust within, too, along with some lime flowers. Good density to this long and lovely wine.  Bowes Wine orignal note

Sweetness Explained
Sweetness Explained

Sweetness

All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab. 

Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
