JOSEPH DROUHIN COTE DE BEAUNE BLANC 2022, 勃根地

I was really impressed by how rich and well-balanced this Chardonnay is—it’s got that classic Burgundy depth without being too heavy. Poured a glass with some roasted chicken and it paired beautifully.

Opened this with dinner last night and the richness really delivers—silky texture with just enough weight to stand up to roasted chicken. For a white Burgundy at this price, the balance of fruit and oak is genuinely impressive. Already thinking about grabbing another bottle for the holidays.

Picked up a bottle after reading about the winery’s history, and it’s beautifully balanced—the richness of the Chardonnay really comes through without being too heavy.
