Chardonnay 2022

Maison Joseph Drouhin, founded in Beaune in 1880, is one of Burgundy’s great family-owned wine houses. For four generations, the Drouhin family has crafted wines with the ambition of expressing the remarkable diversity of Burgundy’s terroirs with precision, elegance and authenticity.

With a portfolio spanning more than 90 appellations, Joseph Drouhin offers a genuine journey through the richness and diversity of Burgundy, from regional appellations to the most prestigious Premier and Grand Crus.

The Maison has been awarded the Grappe d’Or by Gault&Millau, a distinction that recognises the quality of its work and its position among the leading names in Burgundy.

The Bourgogne Chardonnay is made from grapes sourced from different parts of the Burgundy wine region and carefully selected according to the Maison’s exacting standards. A true introduction to the great white wines of the region, it offers a classic and accessible expression of Burgundian Chardonnay. Clay-limestone soils and ageing in both vats and oak barrels contribute freshness, finesse and elegance.

Appearance: Bright golden-yellow color with subtle green highlights. Clear and radiant, it evokes freshness and elegance.

Nose: Delicate aromas of fresh grape and green almond, complemented by notes of honey, dried fruits, and a floral touch. A refined and harmonious aromatic profile.

Palate: Lively and direct on the attack, supported by a beautiful acidity. The palate is elegant and fruity, with flavors of citrus and white-fleshed fruits, and a slightly mineral, well-balanced finish.

Food & Wine Pairing: Ideal with seafood (grilled salmon, scallops), creamy poultry dishes (such as Burgundy-style chicken), or soft cheeses like Brie de Meaux and Chaource.
