Joseph Drouhin Description
Joseph Drouhin Chambolle-Musigny is all about elegance, often described as fine lace and silk in a glass. It shines with a bright, intense color and a beautifully complex nose bursting with violet, black cherry, and hints of damp earth, while certain vintages add alluring touches of truffle and game. On the palate, refined tannins gently coat the mouth, striking a lovely balance between silky texture and fresh acidity. The finish is long and graceful, lingering with notes of ripe cherry and candied fruit. This graceful Burgundy is a dream alongside roast duck, mushroom dishes, herb-roasted poultry, veal, or creamy, earthy cheeses—perfect for turning any meal into something truly special.

Aromas of tar spice red cherries light watermelon and cranberries. Orange blossom too. It's medium-bodied with very fine tannins and a creamy polished finish. Focused and vivid. Fine velvety texture. Drinkable now but better in two or three years.

The 2023 Chambolle “Premier Cru” bottling from Joseph Drouhin is outstanding. The wine is classically Chambolle in its aromatic constellation of plums red and black cherries pigeon mustard seed chalky soil tones cedar and a smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is deep full-bodied and very elegant in profile with a superb core of fruit fine soil transparency and grip fine-grained tannins and a long tangy and complex finish of flawless balance. (Drink between 2037-2080)

The 2023 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru comes from four of five different lieux-dits that are personally owned by the Drouhins. This is clean and pure on the nose. The 30% whole cluster is seamlessly integrated with fine mineralité in the background. The palate is medium-bodied silky smooth and beautifully balanced with fine tannins and a dash of white pepper and sous-bois toward the finish. This is a commendable follow-up to the 2022 and may even surpass it.
Wine Advocate: 91-93 Points
The 2023 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru is pure and pretty, delivering aromas of sweet raspberries, cherries and spices, followed by a medium-bodied, bright and mineral palate, concluding with a perfumed finish. As usual, the blend is mainly composed of domaine fruit.
