Joseph Drouhin Gevrey-Chambertin

The Joseph Drouhin winery was founded in 1880 in Beaune. Today, it is a family enterprise with long-standing traditions and a century-long history that has gone through many stages of development. Robert Drouhin made the main contribution to the company's development. Starting in 1957, he expanded the holdings, buying vineyards in regions where there was real potential. Large sums were always invested in acquiring vineyards, but the winery's pride is the "Clos de Mouches" vineyard in the vicinity of Beaune. To maintain high quality, yields are deliberately reduced by an average of 20% of the legally permitted amount. Another key principle the company has adhered to since the late 1960s is exclusively biodynamic and biological methods of vineyard management, excluding the use of various pesticides and chemicals. Today, Joseph Drouhin's holdings include over 75 hectares of vineyards and are considered the largest in the region. The wines of this producer are rightfully recognized as unique, intense, and delicate; their taste unfolds slowly, conveying all the bright colors and aroma of the berries. A distinctive feature of the refined and sophisticated wines is an astonishing purity of taste, providing an infinitely long pleasure.
