The Auxey-Duresses Rouge V.Vignes Monopole from Clos du Moulin Aux Moines is a French wine from Burgundy that expresses the essence of Pinot Noir with a rare elegance. The old vines, from which the grapes used for this wine are sourced, offer a concentration and complexity of aromas that results in a bouquet as rich as it is balanced, with notes of ripe red fruits, delicate spices, and a slight hint of vanilla from barrel aging.

The winemaking process is meticulously managed to preserve the unique characteristics of the individual grape varieties and the terroir. On the palate, the wine is structured yet smooth, with refined tannins and a persistent freshness that invites the next sip. Its complexity develops magnificently in the glass, making it a perfect accompaniment to red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses.

This monopole, representing a single property of the Clos du Moulin Aux Moines winery dedicated to the production of this wine, ensures a unique and high-quality consistency in every vintage, celebrating the pure expression of the Auxey-Duresses terroir.
