Silky waves of ripe cherry and dark berry fruit define the 2021 Joseph Drouhin Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru, lifted by floral tones and a subtle, savory spice from its whole-cluster vinification. The palate is tightly woven yet refined, with crisp, chalk-tinged tannins, a vivid mineral core and a lingering finish that shows a faint saline snap. This is a finely balanced, energetic Griotte that emphasizes finesse over sheer power.

Joseph Drouhin’s Griotte‑Chambertin Grand Cru is a rare, small‑parcel Pinot Noir from the tiny Griotte climat in Gevrey‑Chambertin—noted for its vivid morello‑cherry fruit, floral lift and an undercurrent of spice, leather and truffle as it ages. Drouhin’s estate‑grown, organically/biodynamically tended fruit and restrained winemaking produce a silky, finely‑tannined Grand Cru that balances lush, perfumed fruit with a chalky mineral spine and long aging potential.
