The Wine
Wine Advocate’s Neal Martin was full of praise for this third-generation family producer when he visited to taste through their wines: “Drouhin continues to demonstrate what a class act they have become.” Maison Drouhin was founded 130 years ago and is now run by the three grandchildren of the founder – Frédéric, Philippe and Véronique. Their magnificent portfolio extends from Chablis in the north to the Côte Chalonaise. They’re firm believers in organic and biodynamic viticulture, part of their philosophy of meticulous attention to detail throughout their range, from villages to Grand Cru. This is a fine 2020, just beginning to open up, with depth, ripeness and poise. Let it breathe to enjoy all its creamy, nutty and ripe peach complexity.

A classic example of Puligny-Montrachet, with the balance of creaminess and elegance we expect
