Today we are offering a selection of recent releases from Jean-Paul and Benoit Droin:
"People often cite Domaines Raveneau and Vincent Dauvissat as the two greatest exponents of Chablis, however, I would like to add a third – Domaine Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin. Over the last five or six years, Benoît Droin has really ratcheted up the quality. I cannot exaggerate how often Droin’s wines end up the best of the flight during the annual 'Burgfest' blind tastings. Again and again, they shine against stiff competition. It is time to accept that Droin is now one of the leading producers in Chablis.” - Neal Martin, Vinous
Jean-Paul and Benoit Droin can trace their family roots as vineyard owners back to the early 17th century. Through succeeding generations they have managed to acquire a little over thirteen hectares of vineyards with extensive holdings in some of the best premier and grand cru sites.
These wines are arriving in May.
