Joseph Drouhin Meursault is a biodynamic white wine made by Joseph Drouhin using the Chardonnay varietal from Burgundy.

A magical balance between softness and freshness.
Elegance wines from Joseph Drouhin
Since the young entrepreneur Joseph Drouhin founded his own winery in Beaune, Burgundy, in 1880, his family has acquired top-quality vineyards generation after generation, and they currently own some of the finest in Burgundy. Today, the fourth generation continues this legacy by producing pure, fine, and elegant wines according to biodynamic regulations. Joseph Drouhin Meursault originated south of Beaune, in the Côte des Blancs. A Premier Cru vineyard with limestone and clay soils, biodynamic farming practices limit the yield to 45 hl/ha. Harvesting is carried out manually at the optimal time for the Chardonnay varietal. The soil is dry, poor, and perfectly suited to Chardonnay. The quality of a Meursault AC depends heavily on the vineyard's location and the manager's knowledge and expertise. Robert Drouhin sources grapes from the best vineyards. Drouhin is frugal with new oak, never allowing it to dominate the fruit. In the winery, Joseph Drouhin Meursault's grapes are slowly pressed, and the resulting must is spontaneously fermented with indigenous yeasts. Finally, the wine is aged for 12 months in French oak barrels.What do we eat at Joseph Drouhin Meursault
Meursault is a wine with a radiant golden color. Intense aromas of ripe tropical fruit, with a light touch of honey and butter. The wine has a refined and pure taste. It's full-bodied without being heavy. A breathtaking finish. An excellent wine for fish dishes or white meat dishes.Product details
