Color
Muted garnet red with violet reflections and delicate brown lightening towards the rim.
Nose
The 2014 Auxey-Duresses Vielles Vignes-Monopol Clos du Moulin aux Moines has a beautiful depth and earthiness to the nose. Dark forest floor, noble mushrooms and truffles make the start and are complemented by small dark berries, dark plum jam and a breath of bitter chocolate.
Palate
On the palate, the 2014 Auxey-Duresses Vielles Vignes-Monopol Clos du Moulin aux Moines offers an animating freshness that seems to be set in a precise minerality. Its tannins and acidity tickle the palate with your inspiring youthfulness and contrast nicely with the earthy and charming notes of the nose. It is already very pleasant to drink in its youthful stage, but has excellent ageing and storage potential.
Food recommendations by Christina Hilker
- Tagliatelle with freshly shaved black truffle
- Hare with Brussels sprouts and cranberries and hazelnut potato noodles
- Cheese with an earthy note, like Tomme de Savoie with fruit bread and walnuts
