Robert Parker: Another interesting producer who merits a visit in Auxey-Duresses is Michel Prunier, whose cellars are directly across from the excellent restaurant called La Crémaillère, one of my favorite country restaurants in Burgundy. The food is surprisingly good and their wine list is packed with selections from the local growers.
We followed the advice of Robert Parker and, after the tasting at Domaine Michel Prunier & Fille, went across the street to have lunch at La Crémaillère. And we had more wine of Domaine Michel Prunier & Fille.
Ola Bergman: In 2002 Domaine Michel Prunier & Fille expanded into the restaurant business. They bought La Crémaillère across the street. Jean-Michel Vernochet is the chef there now and it is open every day except Tuesday and Wednesday. The cuisine is traditional with regional specialities.
Burgundyeye: Situated in the charming wine village of Auxey-Duresses - close to Meursault and Beaune. Chef Jean-Michel Vernochet offers traditional cuisine with regional specialities like parslied ham, boeuf bourguignon, snails in puff pastry in a cream and garlic sauce and fresh water fish in crayfish and a sparkling wine sauce. La Crémaillère is the guarantee of a warm welcome in typical Burgundy surroundings.
