• Falstaff: Liquorice and blackberry on the nose immediately announce what an unusual vintage this is. But this exuberant ripeness is well judged on the vividly fresh and expressive freshness and a beautifully juicy, elegant body.

Producer Information

Domaine Drouhin-Laroze is a producer in the Cte de Nuits in Burgundy that specializes in producing wines made from Pinot Noir. The domaine has its origins in vineyards in Gevrey-Chambertin purchased in 1850 by Jean-Baptiste Laroze. Eventually Alexandre Drouhin took over the estate, bringing his family vines from Chambolle-Musigny and incorporating them under Domaine Drouhin-Laroze. Today the family owns 11.5 hectares (28.5 acres) of vines spread throughout Burgundy and is run by the fifth and sixth generation of the family. The domaine owns vineyards in six grand cru appellations in the Cte de Nuits: Musigny, Chambertin Clos de Bze, Clos de Vougeot, Bonnes-Mares, Latricires-Chambertin and Chapelle-Chambertin. It also has plots in four premier cru regions and three village appellations. The grapes are all hand-harvested and transported to the winery in Gevrey-Chambertin. Grand cru wines are aged in 100 percent new oak, premier cru wines in 50 percent new oak and village wines in first-fill barrels. All of the wines are bottled without fining or filtration.
