With a deep respect for tradition and a commitment to sustainable viticulture, the Drouhin family has crafted wines of finesse, balance, and authenticity for four generations.

On the palate, this Pinot Noir is medium-bodied and silky smooth, showcasing pure red fruit flavors, supple tannins, and a lively acidity that makes each sip vibrant and refreshing. Gentle notes of forest floor and soft oak nuances add a touch of complexity, leading to a clean, elegant finish that lingers with a whisper of tart cranberry and warm spice.

A Versatile Companion for Fine Food

Joseph Drouhin Chorey-Lès-Beaune is wonderfully food-friendly, complementing a wide variety of dishes without overwhelming delicate flavors.

Meticulous Craftsmanship from Vineyard to Bottle

Sourced from carefully selected vineyards in Chorey-Lès-Beaune, the grapes for this wine are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness. Joseph Drouhin’s philosophy of minimal intervention and gentle winemaking preserves the pure expression of the fruit and the terroir.

Fermentation takes place using native yeasts, and the wine is aged for about 12 to 15 months in French oak barrels, a portion of which are new, adding subtle structure and complexity without overshadowing the delicate Pinot Noir character.
