Tasting notes for the Montrachet Grand Cru 2018 "Marquis de Laguiche" - Domaine Joseph Drouhin

  • EYE: The wine has a pale gold color with green reflections.
  • NOSE: An aromatic bouquet that's intense and complex, with notes of citrus, white flowers, honey, and vanilla. Hints of almond, hazelnut, and brioche add an extra layer of complexity.
  • MOUTH: Both rich and elegant on the palate. Flavors of citrus and honey harmoniously combine with notes of white peach, toasted almond, and vanilla. The texture is creamy and silky, with lively acidity that brings beautiful freshness. The finish is long and persistent, with saline and mineral notes.

In short: The Montrachet Grand Cru 2018 Marquis de Laguiche from the Domaine Joseph Drouhin is an exceptional wine, both rich and elegant, with remarkable aromatic complexity and depth of flavor. The fruity and floral aromas and flavors harmoniously blend with oak barrel aging notes, offering a rich and nuanced tasting experience. This wine can be enjoyed now or cellared for many years.

Famous Beaune wine estate

 

The Drouhin family has been working in the vineyard for more than 130 years. In 1880, Joseph Drouhin founded his very first wine trading house in Beaune. A few years later, his son Maurice turned this little business into a bonafide wine estate, with the addition of a vineyard next to the main building. Then, in 1957, Joseph’s grandson Robert bought many more grapevines as well as a fully equipped oenological laboratory. Managed by Laurence Jobard, the first woman oenologist in Burgundy, this lab allowed them to experiment a lot (turning the estate into one of the first to adopt reasoned viticulture, for example).

Thanks to his research, Robert laid the first brick of what would ultimately become the philosophy of the Domaine Drouhin. Since 1990, the estate has gone full biodynamics and the motto now is to solve natural problems using natural solutions. Plowing is done using a horse, fertilizers are completely natural, yields are voluntarily low, grapevines are respected, harvesting is done by hand… Everything here revolves around the well-being of the vineyard, which of course shows in the final products.

The Drouhin style gives birth to wines that are a balanced combination of harmony, smoothness and strength. The estate’s pursuit of excellence leaves nobody indifferent. Today, the Domaine Joseph Drouhin owns 73 hectares of vineyard, located in the Côte de Nuits, Côte de BeauneCôte Chalonnaise and Chablisien. It is one of the biggest estates in Burgundy, producing more than 90 different appellations (Chardonnay and Pinot Noir), with many of them being premiers crus or even grands crus.
