Winemaker Notes
The 2020 Joseph Drouhin Fleurie displays a brilliant, luminous raspberry-ruby hue and opens with an intensely fragrant, floral nose bursting with notes of violets, lilac, red cherries, and tangy gooseberry, underlined by subtle hints of liquorice and baking spice. True to the warm, sun-ripened nature of the 2020 vintage, the palate is richer and more concentrated than usual for this notoriously delicate Beaujolais Cru, offering a fleshy core of ripe black cherries, red plums, and dark berries. Balanced by fresh acidity and remarkably smooth, velvety tannins, it glides across the palate with suppleness and charm, concluding with a long, spice-tinged, and floral-inflected finish.
About Winery
Maison Joseph Drouhin was founded in 1880 in Beaune, Burgundy, by Joseph Drouhin, and has since grown into one of the region’s most respected wine producers. Over the generations, the family expanded its holdings to include vineyards across Burgundy—such as Chablis, Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, and Côte Chalonnaise—and later established Domaine Drouhin Oregon in the Willamette Valley. Today, the estate remains family-run by Joseph’s great-grandchildren, who continue the tradition of producing elegant wines with a focus on terroir and sustainable practices, including organic certification for their Burgundy vineyards since 2009
