Chorey-lès-Beaune Joseph Drouhin 1996
Joseph Drouhin er et af Bourgognes mest velrenommerede vinhuse, grundlagt i 1880 i hjertet af Beaune. Huset drives i dag af fjerde generation og kombinerer en omfattende négociant-virksomhed med over 80 hektar egne vingårde, der strækker sig fra Chablis i nord til Mâconnais i syd. Denne Chorey-lès-Beaune fra 1996 er fremstillet med husets klassiske fokus på tradition og et tydeligt oprindelsespræg. Vinen er modnet i de historiske kældre, der engang tilhørte de franske konger og hertugerne af Bourgogne. Årgang 1996 er karakteriseret ved at være syredrevet og har opnået en score på 91 point.
Chorey-lès-Beaune er en landsbyappellation i Côte de Beaune, beliggende lige nord for selve Beaune mellem Aloxe-Corton og Savigny-lès-Beaune. Området fik sin AOC-status i 1970 og adskiller sig ved primært at være placeret på sletten frem for på skråningerne. De omkring 134 hektar vinmarker domineres af Pinot Noir, som dyrkes på en jordbund af mergel og kalkstensalluvium med en stenet undergrund. Jordbunden varierer over appellationen og bliver mere gruset mod Aloxe-Corton og mere leret mod Savigny. Området anerkendes ofte som en fremragende introduktion til vinene fra Côte de Beaune på landsbyniveau.
Joseph Drouhin har gennem årtier været en stille, men konsekvent fortaler for økologisk og biodynamisk vindyrkning i en region, hvor traditionel praksis længe har domineret. Deres tilgang respekterer regionens historie og giver et unikt tværsnit af Bourgognes stilistiske bredde. Udover deres dybe rødder i Frankrig har familien siden 1987 også drevet Domaine Drouhin i Oregon, hvilket understreger deres position som en af de mest komplette og seriøse aktører i vinverdenen.
The history of the wine
Below, you can delve into the history of this wine — its producer, grape, area, and region.
Burgundy
Burgundy in eastern France was shaped by medieval monks who mapped the area's countless terroirs. The region grows almost exclusively Pinot Noir and Chardonnay and has turned terroir into an art form with its finely meshed system of climats. From Chablis in the north to the Côte d'Or and Mâconnais in the south, the limestone soil yields some of the world's most sought-after and elegant wines.
Toen deze wijn werd gemaakt, zag de wereld er heel anders uit. Hier zijn enkele verhalen die zich ontvouwden toen deze fles rustig in de kelder rijpte.
