Total Immersion in Burgundy and Champagne 2023 by ombiasy WineTours
The most ancient vaulted cellars of Beaune belong to Drouhin. We visited the historic cellars of about 2.5 acres under the center of Beaune. These cellars once belonged to the Dukes of Burgundy and later to the Kings of France. You walk on history much older than the Kingdom of France, since already the Romans built wine cellars in Beaune and we saw bricks, paths and walls nearly 2000 years old.
The tour ended with a tasting of 6 wines.
Maison Joseph Drouhin
Originally from the Yonne department, Joseph Drouhin founded the
négociant company which bears his name in 1880. His son Maurice took
over in 1918, buying the first vineyards including the famous Beaune
Clos des Mouches. Maurice Drouhin was a significant personality in
Beaune, sitting on the INAO committee and acting as Deputy Administrator
of the Hospices de Beaune, including during the troubled period of
World War II.
His successor was his nephew and adopted heir Robert Jeausset-Drouhin who took charge in 1957.
Today, the fourth generation is at the helm. Robert Jeausset-Drouhin
Drouhin now retains a surveillance role while his children Frédéric
(managing director), Laurent (export markets), Philippe (vineyards) and
Véronique (oenology and Domaine Drouhin Oregon) run the business.
Twenty years after Philippe Drouhin first began introducing organic practices, Maison Joseph Drouhin was awarded organic certification for all vineyards it owns, beginning with the 2009 vintage.
Long-time oenologist Laurence Jobard, engaged by Robert Drouhin in 1973, retired after the 2005 vintage and was replaced by Jérome Faure-Brac, a trained oenologist previously with Bichot, while Véronique Drouhin remains on hand to provide continuity of style.
A balance of tradition and modern techniques characterizes Maison Joseph Drouhin’s winemaking and vineyard management: on site nursery, plowing, leaf removal, 100% hand harvesting, open fermenters, fermenting and aging in oak.
The red wines are pre-macerated at 13-15º Celsius, with a very light punching down at the start followed by alternating punching down and pumping over, depending also on the needs of the vintage. The aim is to privilege the fruit in the wine, and to this end bottling is earlier than for most producers.
Joseph Drouhin - wine-searcher.com
Joseph Drouhin is one of Burgundy's most important wine producers. Founded in Beaune in 1880, the domaine has expanded throughout the 20th Century to include vineyards in Chablis, the Côte de Nuits, the Côte de Beaune and the Côte Chalonnaise, making everything from simple, village-level cuvées to highly priced grand cru and premier cru wines from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
The domaine was started by the eponymous Drouhin, who established the company's headquarters in the city of Beaune in the late 19th Century. His son, Maurice, began to acquire vineyards in the early 20th Century, starting with the now-iconic Clos des Mouches vineyard. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s Joseph Drouhin began to expand its land holdings in Chablis and, in 1988, the domaine established a vineyard in Oregon, in the United States.
Domaine Joseph Drouhin makes several grand cru wines in the Côte d'Or and in Chablis, including ones from Musigny, Corton-Charlemagne and Les Clos, as well as the Marquis de Laguiche Montrachet Grand Cru. It also has land in some of the Côte d'Or's most famous premier cru vineyards, including Chambolle-Musigny's Les Amoureuses vineyard and in Beaune's Clos des Mouches.
Joseph Drouhin makes a range of village-level and regional wines. Grapes for these are sourced from growers in the area, as well as from the domaine's own vineyards.
