No, it doesn't, the foreground color is #57534a and background is #ffffff which gives a ratio of 7.7:1

WCAG 2.0 requires a contrast of 7:1 to reach AAA levels. [1]

you can test it yourself with a bunch of tools but I couldn't find link to results on any of them [2][3][4].

My eyes prefer better contrast. I've read WCAG 2.0 and 7:1 is a minimum contrast, not optimum. The logic is that it's a minimum contrast for a user with 20/80 vision.
