2023 Jean-Paul & Benoit Droin Chablis Grand Cru 'Le Clos Hommage a Louis' 750Ml bottle
Regular price $414.00 Sale price $379.00'[..] Brilliant balanced juice, the Clos transcends the vintage. All white fruit of course but some crunch to the white apple fruit. Juicy and generous but still with a fine firm classic core. Fabulous finish.' 5 Stars, 94-97 points - Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy
'People often cite Domaines Raveneau and Vincent Dauvissat as the two greatest exponents of Chablis, however, I would like to add a third – Domaine Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin. Over the last five or six years, Benoît Droin has really ratcheted up the quality. I cannot exaggerate how often Droin’s wines end up the best of the flight during the annual “Burgfest” blind tastings. Again and again, they shine against stiff competition. It is time to accept that Droin is now one of the leading producers in Chablis.' Neal Martin
'[..] Very vibrant and intense, with crushed limestone and flint. The palate is well balanced with melon, grapefruit, orange rind and quince on the entry, building nicely towards a slightly oily-textured finish. I can see this aging well in bottle more complexity on the finish compared to say, the Valmur or Grenouilles.' 94 points Neal Martin, Vinous
