2021 Joseph Drouhin Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche Grand Cru

Joseph Drouhin was a daring and enterprising young man from the Chablis region. In 1880, at the age of 22, he settled in Beaune and founded his own winery. His goal was to offer high-quality wines that would bear his name. With nearly 90 different appellations, Joseph Drouhin offers a fascinating range of Burgundian terroirs in all their authenticity and subtle variations. Joseph Drouhin adopted an organic and biodynamic approach. Only natural products are used in the vineyards, and all procedures demonstrate the utmost respect for the soil, the vine, and the environment. Joseph Drouhin's style is a combination of character, balance, and harmony. Wines meant to be enjoyed young are fresh and subtle; wines meant for ageing develop a luxurious complexity with age.

The Montrachet 1er Cru Marquis de Laguiche has a beautiful pale stony yellow color with a golden hue. It bursts from the glass with aromas of golden orchard fruit, peach, candied citrus, honeycomb, and toast, as well as light tropical fruit and honeysuckle. Medium to full-bodied, opulent, and textured, it is satiny smooth with a firm core supported by juicy acidity, and finishes with a beautifully defined finish despite its elegant, sun-drenched profile. The finish lingers for minutes with honey, flint, cream, and apples. A dream. Of course, this should age well, but it's already so beautiful.
