JOSEPH DROUHIN BOURGOGNE BLANC 2022, Burgundy

The green almond note really comes through on the finish, giving it a nice complexity for the price. Pairs beautifully with a simple roast chicken dinner.

For a budget-friendly white Burgundy, this delivers surprising complexity—the apple and pear flavors are crisp but with that soft almond finish that makes it feel more expensive than it is. I served it with roasted chicken last night and it held up beautifully.
