Product Notes

The Joseph Drouhin Pouilly-Fuissé is a fine white wine made of Chardonnay grapes from the Burgundy region of France. This wine is well-structured with a dense, fruity flavor of apricot, peach, and white flowers. Its taste is accented with just the right amount of oak, giving it a pleasant smokiness. The wine has a lively acidity and a long finish that brings out the richness of its flavor profile. Joseph Drouhin Pouilly-Fuissé pairs well with a variety of dishes such as seafood, chicken, and vegetables. This wine is a representation of Drouhin’s expertise in producing high-quality Burgundy wines that embody the terroir of the region.

Tasting Notes

A seductive wine and a well defined expression of the Chardonnay grape. The colour is golden, with some green reflections. Among the floral and fruity aromas, almond and ripe grapes dominate. On the palate, the wine is refreshingly pleasant, ethereal in its lightness. Long and refreshing aftertaste

About the Winery

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.
