The Auxey-Duresses Les Crais comes from 40-year-old vines planted on clay-limestone soils and farmed using reasoned viticultural methods. The grapes reach optimal concentration thanks to green harvesting, and the parcel is harvested by hand. When tasting, this wine has a brilliant pale yellow yellow colour. We appreciate it for its subtle aromatic expression, which combines white flowers and citrus fruits. After an élevage in casks, of which 30% new oak, the finish is lifted by a delicate toasted oakiness. With its great freshness, this wine can be enjoyed either young or after some years of aging.

Auxey-Duresses Les Crais Alain Gras serve at a temperature of 12°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Saint-Pierre cuit enc roûte de gros sel, Quenelles de brochet, Escalope de dinde à la crème.
