Joseph Drouhin is one of the most illustrious Burgundy houses. Starting as a négociant, the family acquired its first vineyard – the Clos des Mouches – in 1921, and now has a glittering portfolio of the best sites, as well as longstanding contracts for many more. It is now run by the fourth generation of the family and produces some of the most consistently exciting wines in Burgundy.
The warm dry weather was particularly challenging for young vines, large numbers of which shut down in a bid to survive. Many of their grapes were not used – the whites too raw, the reds too tannic. The focus instead was on picking at the right time to avoid over ripeness. The harvest started on 20 August, bringing in crop of ripe grapes – the whites had alcohol levels from 12.5% to 13.5%; the reds a little higher – 12.8% to 14.5%. It finished in mid-September. There is he normal average of 30% whole-bunch fermentation for red wines.
