Joseph Drouhin Cote de Beaune Blanc 2020 750ml

Enticing floral nose with ripe yellow grapefruit and candied lemon. Ripe and generous with a wonderfully creamy texture on the palate. Excellent tension between minerality and richness, the fine tannins beautifully interwoven with the acidity at the long, cool and focused finish. A blend of wine from young vines in the Côte de Beaune and the cool-climate La Grande Châtelaine.

A more floral, if less citrus-suffused nose of pear and apple complements the almost delicate yet generous flavors that possess very good depth on the sneaky long finish. This is really quite good for the genre and a wine that should drink well shortly after release. Barrel Sample: 88-91
