Joseph Drouhin's Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc is an exceptional white wine, elegantly crafted in the prestigious Burgundy region. Its exquisite bouquet captures aromas of white fruits, complemented by delicate oak and warm toast undertones. On the palate, this Chardonnay conveys a luxurious richness yet maintains charming freshness, offering intoxicating flavours of stone fruits and citrus. The wine's stunning complexity, profound depth, and refined minerality testify to the extraordinary terroir of Chassagne-Montrachet. Ideal for connoisseurs, this opulent wine pairs beautifully with poultry, seafood and creamy cheeses.

Tasting Notes

Light golden colour. Intense nose of flower, brioche and candied lemon aromas, evolving towards nuances of grilled hazelnut and spice as the wine matures. Good texture and finesse on the palate. It has a long finish, where once again floral and gingerbread dominate. A generous and elegant wine.
