The Côte de Beaune Blanc (2021 vintage, for example) shows pale gold color and bright tones of honey, almond, lemongrass, and citrus. On the palate, there’s a creamy texture balanced by lively acidity and stoney minerality that gives shape and lift. Subtle notes of grilled nuts and orchard fruit linger on the finish without heaviness. Elegant and harmonious, drink now for freshness, or cellar for another few years for more complexity. 

Maison Joseph Drouhin is one of Burgundy’s most esteemed names, established in 1880, with a legacy built on precision, balance, and respect for terroir. The estate owns vineyards throughout the Côte de Beaune, including plots above Beaune town and some declassified fruit from well-known sites like Clos des Mouches. Drouhin applies gentle vineyard practices, hand‑harvesting, careful sorting, slow pressing, and elevage that leans on older barrels to preserve elegance without over‑oaking. The house style emphasizes finesse, minerality, and aromatic clarity over power.
