Supple and quietly powerful, the 2023 Joseph Drouhin Meursault layers ripe orchard fruit with hints of citrus zest, crushed almond and a gentle creamy softness. The palate feels broader and more generous than many village whites, yet it’s kept in line by a vivid line of acidity that pulls everything through to a bright, lingering, slightly savory finish.

Joseph Drouhin’s Meursault is a village-level Chardonnay from the limestone-rich slopes of Meursault in the Côte des Blancs, fashioned in the house’s precise, terroir-driven style; it typically shows a golden, honeyed nose of linden, hazelnut and chamomile and a silky, rounded palate with yellow-plum and gingerbread notes and a saline, stony finish. Vinified with slow pneumatic pressing and aged 14–16 months (roughly 20% new oak), it balances richness and freshness—an accessible yet ageworthy expression of Meursault’s warm, mineral soils.
