Joseph Drouhin Cote de Beaune, Burgundy France
Readers rated this wine:
Classic, elegant, complete.
A classic example of a well designed Beaune red, this version delivers cherry, leather, fine spices, dried violets, cedar and red apple skin aromas. The Palate is grounded in earth; silky red fruit, tealeaf , leather and spice flavours lead to a smooth finish. It's not bitter but engaging and dynamic.

Readers rated this wine:
Tangy, restrained, juicy. Classic restraint and tangy red fruit with savoury herbs, beet greens, leather, tealeaf and forest floor aromas. It is juicy yet light-bodied, tart and lean; a perfect food wine for soft cheeses, mild charcuterie, creamy mushroom risotto.
