Joseph Drouhin 2014 (France: Burgundy) (ID# 2128)
| Name | Joseph Drouhin 2014 (ID# 2128) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varietal | Saint-Veran | |||
| Region | France: Burgundy | |||
| Notes | "Though rich, this is offset by vivid acidity, creating a nice tension to the lemon, apple and melon flavors. Long and tangy on the finish. Drink now through 2018. 8,000 cases imported." (Wine Spectator) | |||
Additional Notes "The 2014 St Veran comes from 17 growers and one-third of the crop is raised in new 500-liter barrels. It has a satisfying bouquet with Granny Smith apples and a hint of orange blossom, perhaps more enticing than the 2014 Mâcon-Lugny. The palate is linear and crisp, very fine acidity here with a tang of sour lemon that enlivens the finish." (Wine Advocate) |
