“Joseph Drouhin’s grandson, Robert Drouhin, created this cuvée to embody the idea of ‘a Burgundy that introduces you to Burgundy’—and he did it all with charm!”

With a golden yellow color and greenish highlights, this Chardonnay offers a lively bouquet of citrus aromas, complemented by hints of honey and vanilla. It reveals an elegant, round texture on the palate: a fruity, lively wine—a classic Burgundy with plenty of charm! - screw cap

Rated estate (2022 guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)

About the estate:

The estate is now led by Frédéric Drouhin, supported by his sister Véronique for the wines and his brother Philippe in the vineyards. In July 2013, it opened a wine bar in the heart of Beaune. It has found its stride and has established itself as a sure bet. The estate draws on a biodynamic vineyard particularly well-stocked with great white wines, in the Côte-de-Beaune as well as in Chablis (wines sold under the Drouhin-Vaudon label), including the famous Clos des Mouches.
