Smooth and seductive. This is probably a relatively big cuvée but it has the Drouhin trademark of subtlety without leanness. Hint of that chèvre flavour I’ve found in some 2021s! Utterly ‘pleasant’ though quite a price! Drinking range: 2024 - 2033 Rating: 16.5 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Jan 2023)

The 2021 Puligny-Montrachet Village has a finely-tuned nose, Granny Smiths intermixed with a very light gooseberry aroma. The palate is crisp on the entry with a fine bead of acidity. Not overly complex, yet I appreciate its length and salinity. Enjoy over the next 6-8 years. Drinking range: 2024 - 2034 Rating: 88-90 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Jan 2023)
A glowing pale lemon yellow. Drouhin’s 2021 Puligny-Montrachet displays really rather a classy bouquet. Plenty of energy on the palate, the acidity is well integrated and the persistence is quite impressive. In fact, really good.

Joseph Drouhin
Despite the size of their vineyard holding, not all Drouhin's wines come from their own domaine, but most of the other wines do come from long-term contracts, such as exists with the Marquis de Laguiche wines. In all but name these wines are 'Domaine' wines, and the vineyards are cared for and the wines vinified with exactly the same care.

First plot below Enseignères. More clay, so arguably not your typical Puligny, says Adrien.
Spicy apples and pears, touch of blossom, waxy lemons. Great mineral drive, wet stones. Amazing freshness, very good.
