wine serving
What are the serving recommendations and ideal drinking window for this wine?
For this 2022 Auxey-Duresses Blanc, serve chilled at 10-12°C. It is enjoyable now for its fresh fruit and minerality, but can also age gracefully for another 3-5 years, developing more complex nutty and honeyed notes. Decanting is not typically required for white Burgundy of this age.
