Agnes Paquet Les Hoz Auxey-Duresses Rouge 2023 Txakoli The 2018 Vintage was awardedThe Wine Les Hozvineyard in Auxey Duresses is south facing with deep white limestone soils. Half planted in the 1950s and the other half in 2000. The wine is fresh and pure with a fine texture carried along by red and black fruits with spice on the finish. Slick, textural and fresh with a gentle tannin structure. Again, this wine is charming straight out of the bottle, such is the purity of Agnes wines. Super cellarable too Highly recommended! 16. 5
