The 2017 vintage of Joseph Drouhin Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru showcases the elegance characteristic of white wines from this year. These wines are floral with citrus notes, round, well-balanced, and highly attractive. This Grand Cru is renowned as one of the greatest white wines of the Côte de Beaune. Upon tasting, this wine presents a golden colour with bright reflections. The aromas are complex, revealing notes of white fruit associated with touches of vanilla, almond, and grilled bread. The finish is remarkably long, with hints of preserved and ripe fruit. Further nuances include oak, butter, minerals, earthy undertones, almond, brioche, nutty characteristics, as well as notes of melon, peach, lemon, lime, and even a touch of blackberry. For food pairings, this exceptional wine is a perfect match for shellfish, pasta, rich fish like salmon or tuna, mild and soft cheeses, and cured meats. For truly refined occasions, consider pairing it with foie gras, lobster bisque, crayfish, vol-au-vent, sweetbreads, or white meat chicken in a cream sauce. Tasting a wine of this stature is always a cause for emotion, making it ideal for the most memorable events and refined dishes. This wine has an optimal consumption window of 10 to 25 years, with an impressive ageing potential of up to 25 years. 【One of the greatest white wines of the Côte de Beaune.】
