There are tons of wines on the market.
Even at the smallest wine shop, I have no idea what to choose.
Best way to find a good wine is to ask for recommendation.
Domaine Roulot Auxey-Duresses Premier Cru Rouge 2008
This wine was recommended at Kermit Lynch.
Auxey-Duresses is a village in Cote de Beaune, Burgundy.
The wine had garnet color with acid and tannin well integrated.
The aromas were of rose, tart cherry, pomegranate and cured meat.
Domaine Roulot is known more for their white, but this Pinot Noir was elegant, restrained and tasted great!
This is good food wine but I also enjoyed drinking just by itself.
Burgundy at this price range (I believe this wine was around $40~50 when I bought some years ago) is hard to choose.
Ones with good reputation can't be found at this price, and $50 is too expensive to pay for wine from famous AC which might cost that much only because of the appellation name.
I wouldn't have chosen this wine if it wasn't recommended, and now this is my favorite wine.
Thank you for the recommendation.
