A sublime balance of body, acidity, and flavour, it’s clear why wine bearing this title comes with such a reputation.13.5% alcohol by volume.
FOOD PAIRING, STORING AND SERVICE: An incredibly rewarding experience if enjoyed on its own, this also pairs superbly with a Cheese Souffle or Duck Confit. Enjoy now or keep until 2025 to develop further.
ABOUT: Joseph Drouhin, a Chablis native, arrived in Beaune, the heart of Burgundy in 1880 and founded the winery and negotiant business which is now in the hands of his four great-grandchildren – Philippe, Veronique, Laurent, and Frederic each play a different role in helping to grow the family wine companies in Burgundy and USA. With almost 200 acres of vines in Burgundy, they organically farm their own vineyards and purchase grapes from leading growers in the Burgundy region.
