Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin 2016 Bouteille (75cl) Grand Cru Les Clos Blanc Chablis Bourgogne

Chateau , Jan 20

4 /5

La famiglia Droin è forse la più antica di Chablis. Lavora in questa parte della borgogna da oltre cinque secoli. Il 6 maggio del 1866 l'Imperatore Napoleone III, in visita ad Auxerre, ricevette da Jean Baptiste Droin alcune bottiglie del suo vino. Per ringraziarlo Napoleone III gli fece avere un tastevin d'argento con incisi i simboli dell'Impero, oggetto tuttora in possesso della famiglia. Attualmente la proprietà si estende per 24 ettari con ben 8 climats di Premier crus e 5 di Grands Crus.

It expresses a vast aromatic range with notes of ripe fruit such as peach but also oyster shell or smoked. The palate impresses with its freshness, power and mineral balance. There is a fine reduction carried by iodine flavours of oyster shell, lemon and flint. It is a great complex wine with exceptional ageing potential.

Of a very light yellow colour. The Jean-Paul Benoit Droin Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos shows exotic floral hints of jasmine.A sweet sweet wine.
A good wine while having snacks.
I'll try again at the upcoming wine tasting.

I definetely wouldn't pair this wine with fish dishes. It had been opened at a wine event.
Jean Paul & Benoit Droin Chablis Grand Crus Les Clos Blanc has a characteristic yellow amber colour. I am no expert on flowers, but Jean Paul & Benoit Droin Chablis Grand Crus Les Clos Blanc reminded me daffodil. For being a Chablis is very light.
