Product Notes

Joseph Drouhin Chablis is a white wine that embodies the essence of the Chablis region in Burgundy, France. Made from Chardonnay grapes grown in soils dating back to the Jurassic era, it boasts a bright, pale gold color and intense aromas of green apple, lemon zest and floral notes. On the palate, it's dry and crisp with flavors of pear, citrus and minerals. The finish is long and refreshing, leaving a pleasant acidity on the tongue. Joseph Drouhin has been producing stunning Chablis wines for over a century, and this exceptional vintage is no exception. Ideal for pairing with oysters, seafood and light poultry dishes, Joseph Drouhin Chablis is a must-try for any wine lover.

Tasting Notes

An elegant wine. Brilliant colour, with hints of green. Typical Chablis nose, where aromas of citrus (lemon) fern and salty sensations predominate.The palate is vigorous and lively, a lot of finesse and balance. The wine shows great purity of taste and a pleasant floral style. Chablis is very mineral in character, almost briny.

About the Winery

Joseph Drouhin

If you are looking to taste the best of wines from the Burgundy region, you have to try wines from the French wine label, Joseph Drouhin. The vines are grown on 90 appellations located across some of the richest terroirs in Burgundy here. Started 140 years ago, this wine label is run by the fourth generation of the Drouhin family with the same amount of dedication and passion as before.

The Joseph Drouhin Domaine is considered as one of the largest wine estates in Burgundy. Currently, the estate comprises of 80 hectares of vineyards located in all the wine-rich areas of Burgundy. Out of these 80, 38 are found in Chablis, 38.5 hectares are found in Cote de Nuits and Cote de Beaune and 3.5 hectares are found in Cote Chalonnaise. A grand, 18th-century watermill, the property of Joseph Drouhin, is regarded as the headquarters of the premium Drouhin Domaine in Chablis.

The two famous Burgundy grape varietals of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are grown in these vineyards. The estates are neatly classified into Premier and Grand Cru. Apart from growing their own grapes, Joseph Drouhin also buys grapes from other wine-growers, who are their long-standing partners. In 2008, this label created the historic “Chablis Wines,” which speak volumes about the wine’s richness and elegance of Burgundy wines.

At this estate, organic and biodynamic winemaking practices are followed, to ensure that the wine reflects the true character of the terroirs where they are grown. No synthetic products are used in the vineyards here. Instead, natural predators and herb infusions are used to process the grapes naturally. At the vineyards of this estate, vines are planted densely. Close to 5000 vines are planted per acre, so that the plants get the maximum benefits of each type of soil where they are grown.
