The estate and the wine |
|
|
A flagship house of Burgundy, still family-managed by an inventive and dynamic sibling team, Joseph Drouhin enjoys a particularly strong affection, consistently affirmed, and well-deserved recognition, positioning the house among the finest in France.
Organic and biodynamic farming, meticulous selection of staves for barrel-making, and very careful winemaking elevate this house to the pinnacle among the labels of excellence in Burgundy. The wines are in harmony, each reflecting this high standard of quality, from the Villages cuvée to the Grand Cru. |

Sourced from 2.5 ha of the family vineyard and the young vines of the famed Clos des Mouches, the 2018 white Côte de Beaune follows in the footsteps of its older counterpart. Grown on first-rate clay-limestone soil with a light structure, the chardonnay exhibits a rare finesse. Biodynamic practices and careful aging in barrels, with 20% new wood, enhance its delicacy and purity of expression. This wine is a sheer delight with notes of honey, almond, and lemongrass, which will evolve into roasted hazelnut as it ages. Enjoy this magnificent white now or cellar it for a few more years. |
