From the Producer
Maison Joseph Drouhin is a Beaune-based négociant and domaine founded in 1880 by Joseph Drouhin, today run by the fourth-generation Frédéric Drouhin. The house is recognised for both négociant bottlings and its own biodynamically-farmed domaine holdings, which stretch from Chablis and the Côte de Nuits through the Côte de Beaune, including grand cru parcels in Charmes-Chambertin and Echézeaux. Viticulture follows organic and biodynamic principles across much of the domaine, with traditional Burgundian winemaking and aging in French oak aimed at expressing the underlying terroir.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Mature red cherry, plum, forest floor, leather and a layered spice line from extended bottle aging.
- Palate: Mature Pinot Noir, with resolved tannin, sweet red-fruit core and the savoury, earthy complexity of an aged Côte de Nuits grand cru.
- Finish: Long, earthy and gently gamey, with the structure of a grand cru carrying the finish.
