A literally breathtaking wine, thanks to the amazing minerality, married to a wealth of extremely fine tannins. Staggering freshness and vitality at the super-long finish. Enormous potential!

Unwinding in the glass with aromas of blackberries, raspberries, sweet spices and peonies, Audoin's 2020 Marsannay Les Favières is medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, its powdery tannins largely concealed in a layered core of vibrant, fragrant fruit. While it's especially suave out of the gates, this is always the domaine's long-distance runner, so patience will be rewarded.
