All auctions / Wine & Spirits / 2021 x 2 Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin & Grand Cru "Vaudésir"...
2021 Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin – Chablis Grand Cru « Vaudésir » + 2 Chablis – 3 bottles (0.75 L) THE DOMAIN Based in Chablis since the 17th century, the Droin family is among the oldest winegrowing lines in the appellation. Benoît Droin, who succeeded his father Jean-Paul, now runs a estate of about 25 hectares, present on most of the Chablis Grands Crus (Les Clos, Valmur, Vaudésir, Grenouilles, Blanchot, Bougros) as well as many Premiers Crus. The house style is precise and crystalline, favoring fruit purity, tension and the salinity typical of the Kimmeridgian. The estate is regularly praised by international wine press (Burghound, Vinous, Decanter, Revue du Vin de France). In Chablis, Droin stands alongside the indispensable references such as Raveneau, Vincent Dauvissat, William Fèvre, Christian Moreau and Louis Michel. THE GREAT NAMES OF BURGUNDY This lot sits within the landscape of estates that give Burgundy its worldwide renown: Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Leroy, Armand Rousseau, Georges Roumier, Comte Georges de Vogüé, Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier, Comte Liger-Belair, Méo-Camuzet, Dujac, Ponsot, Sylvain Cathiard, Arnoux-Lachaux, Jean Grivot, Anne Gros, Emmanuel Rouget, Fourrier, Denis Mortet, Bruno Clair, Marquis d'Angerville, Michel Lafarge, Comte Armand, Coche-Dury, Leflaive, Comtes Lafon, Roulot, Ramonet, Bonneau du Martray, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey, Raveneau and Vincent Dauvissat. (Note: this lot contains exclusively wines from Domaine Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin.) THE VINTAGE 2021 A winemaker’s vintage, marked by April frost and very low yields in Chablis. The wines produced are rare, with great freshness, finely chiselled and a beautiful mineral definition – a “classic” vintage highly sought after by Chablis lovers who prefer a taut and digestible style.
