✨ Technical Specifications
Founded in Beaune in 1880, Maison Joseph Drouhin has spent over a century perfecting the art of Burgundian winemaking. This Chardonnay represents a classic introduction to the house style, which prioritizes elegance, balance, and pure terroir expression over heavy oak influence. Sourced from selected vineyards across the Burgundy region, the grapes undergo gentle pressing before being fermented and aged in a combination of stainless steel vats to preserve vibrant fruit characteristics and seasoned French oak barrels to impart a subtle, rounded texture. The Drouhin family's historical commitment to sustainable viticulture shines through in this wine's clean, mineral-driven profile, capturing the essence of Burgundy's limestone-rich soils.

Under the continuous stewardship of the Drouhin family across four generations, the domaine has expanded its holdings across premier appellations spanning the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, Chablis, and Oregon's Willamette Valley. Dedicated to certified organic and biodynamic viticulture, their winemaking philosophy prioritizes natural balance, purity, and the unadorned expression of individual terroirs. The house is globally celebrated for its benchmark Pinot Noir and Chardonnay bottlings, notably the legendary Beaune Premier Cru Clos des Mouches and Montrachet Grand Cru Marquis de Laguiche.
