Ok I may be a bit biased here .. I love the Aux Cras terroir. In the bouquet lovely red and dark berry fruit airy and brought forward by a energetic minerality. On the palate quite rich and very vibrant with a lovely pure and refined midpalate fruit and a playful minerality – so typical of this delightful terroir. Love the energy in this wine … and although it lacks a bit of the filigree refinement of Les Petits Monts … its a gorgeous glass of pinot.
