Since 1880, Joseph DROUHIN has been the fruit of numerous successions from different generations, strengthening its image over the years to now encompass 93 ha in the finest Burgundy climats. Maurice DROUHIN, son of Joseph, was responsible for the famous Clos des Mouches de la Maison. The DROUHIN family, based in Beaune, has made a name for itself not only through its sustainable viticulture practices, but also through its conquest of territory in Oregon, USA.

About

The 2020 vintage of Bourgogne Laforet Rouge was marked by remarkable concentration. With its lovely color, this complex, expressive wine has great ageing potential.

Your questions, our answers.

Is this a bottle to keep rather than open right away?
The description highlights its high aging potential, so keeping this bottle is a sensible choice. However, it does not specify an aging period or an opening window that would allow us to say the wine is currently at its peak.

Do concentration and complexity refer to the same quality in this wine?
No: concentration refers to the intensity of the wine’s substance, while complexity suggests a diversity of sensations. The description attributes both to this 2020; when tasting it, the point is therefore not to confuse intensity with richness of expression.

Is this bottle a suitable gift for someone building a wine cellar?
Its high aging potential makes it a sensible choice for someone who enjoys cellaring wines. The remarkable concentration noted for this vintage also provides a concrete point of reference to explain the choice.

Should you rely on its lovely color to tell whether it is ready to drink?
No, the lovely color mentioned is a visual quality, not an indication of maturity. When deciding whether to open it, you should not confuse its color with its aging potential, which is also highlighted in the description.

Mon français n'est pas excellent, mais Elodie m'a aidé par téléphone à faire un achat important pour offrir un cadeau pour le 60e anniversaire d'une amie. J'ai été très impressionnée par Elodie, et mon amie m'a informé que le vin était parfaitement emballé et livré par Elodie avec courtoisie et sourire. Merci Elodie - Tu as fait des fans aujourd'hui.
