The Wine
Founded in 1830, Joseph Drouhin has been a byword for top quality Burgundy for nearly two centuries. Neal Martin at Wine Advocate wrote “Drouhin continues to demonstrate what a class act they have become.” Run today by the founder’s four grandchildren, Maison Joseph Drouhin has a magnificent portfolio of vineyards extending southward from Chablis to Mâconnais and Beaujolais.
