2022 Joseph Drouhin Saint Véran, France, Burgundy, Wine Review

Looking for a white Burgundy that won't break the bank? This one is drinking quite nicely. Light golden in color, clear and bright. The nose is nice with lemons, slight cantaloupe, and a hint apple. Medium bodied. Nice balance. On the palate, crisp lemons flavors with a touch of cantaloupe. Slicht minerality. Good finish. This is an easy to drink Chardonnay that is lovely on its own and will work nicely with lighter foods. A nice choice for grilled sea food. Drink over the next three to six years.

For under $25, this is an excellent value in Chablis, in Burgundy and in Chardonnay. Light, silvery/gold in color, clear and bright. The nose has some gun powder and some slight green apples. Also nice minerality/chalk. On the palate, this is lively and crisp. Nice green apple and minerals notes. Long finish. This would go great with foods as well. It should be drunk in the next few years.

This is a very nice Chardonnay made from estate grown and purchased fruit. Light golden in color, clear and bright. The nose has some green apple often found in Chablis, but mostly grapefruit with some lemon. Medium bodied. On the palate, this is moderately crisp with a bit of chalky minerality. Good finish. It drinks well on its own and worked well with a caprese salad. Drink over the next few years.

Chablis: History & Recommendations for the Great Burgundy White Wine

About 110 miles southeast of Paris, at the northern tip of the Burgundy wine region France lays Chablis. Chablis is the name of a village that has given its name to a region producing some of the best white wines in the world. The region of Chablis encompasses 19 towns and is about twenty by fifteen kilometers in size. In France, by law, wines are named after the place where they are fashioned and not the grape varietal. The wine producers of Chablis have spent hundreds of years determining which grapes produce the best wines for their soils and the answer: crisp, mineral-driven wines made from the Chardonnay grape.
