Pours dense and dark, but drinks light and lithe. Strawberries on the nose and strawberry fruit on the palate. A lovely easy-drinking dryness here with low-med tannins and acid. 13% Alc. Not a wine for the ages, but delicious right now. This would be welcome at Thanksgiving, or a table of Pinot lovers of whatever persuasion. Helluva good deal to boot. Lafouge is a favorite in our house and an annual buy. Auxey? Who knew?

Pleasant nose with nice intensity, tart cherries and earth. A medium bodied palate with some richness and really fine fruit ending in a fine finish with appealing acidity. Balanced, tasty and seductive, but not for the long run.
