Bright, elegant Chardonnay from Burgundy masters Joseph Drouhin
Stylistically close to next-door Pouilly-Fuiss, Joseph Drouhin Saint-Vran is rich and generous with ripe peaches, hints of white flowers and flinty mineral nuances. A shining example of southern Burgundy elegance and value.
Founded in 1880, world-renowned Maison Joseph Drouhin is still family-owned and today in the hands of the fourth generation. Their 2023 Saint-Vran is a joyful mix of ripeness and freshness expect notes of white peach, crisp apple and lemon zest, with a gentle mineral freshness. Saint-Vran lies in southern Burgundy, surrounding the famous vineyards of Pouilly-Fuiss but the wines remain that much more affordable than their famous neighbour. Seductive and refined, the 2023 is drinking beautifully.
