Production Details Fruit is sourced partly from Drouhin Family Properties and partly as grapes and must from partner growers working to specifications. Grapes are hand-harvested in open-work crates and carefully sorted if necessary, then totally destemmed. Fermentation and maceration last 2 to 3 weeks in small open vats with punching down and pumping over, using indigenous yeast. The wine is vertically pressed, with press ends separated by tasting. Maturation is in oak barrels, including 20 to 25% new barrels, for 14 to 16 months; the wood comes from French high forests.
Tasting Notes Véronique Boss-Drouhin's cuvée note: bright, intense colour; violet, black cherry and damp earth, with possible truffle and game; refined tannins, balanced texture and acidity, and a long cherry and candied-fruit finish. The producer's 2023 vintage context adds ripe red and black berries and smooth, long, complex palates.
