2020 Maison Joseph Drouhin Saint-Romain Blanc
An exquisite white wine that's lightly oaked and utterly delicious.
The grapes are sourced from the Drouhin Family Properties and select partners, adhering to strict specifications, with the fruit all hand-harvested in open-work crates with careful sorting, for quality and flavour.
Slow pressing in a pneumatic press, with separation of the last press juice from the free-run juice, followed by transfer to wine barrels after light settling.
Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, as well as ageing, took place in oak barrels, with 10-15% new barrels. The ageing process lasted 12 to 14 months.
Tasting Note: A very typical wine, representative of its terroir. A nice white golden hue, sometimes with a greenish touch. Very fine aromas of honeysuckle and ripe yellow plums, evolving towards honey and gingerbread. On the palate, straightforward and lively at first, then a certain roundness. A mineral quality that underpins the wine; a hallmark of Saint-Romain.
Origin: Burgundy, France
Blend: Chardonnay
