Joseph Drouhin Greves Rouge Premier Cru 2023
This structured and "thoroughbred" red wine originates from France, specifically from the Grèves Premier Cru vineyard in the Beaune appellation of the Côte de Beaune. Recognized as one of the most representative vineyards of Beaune, the "Grèves" site (named for its sandy, gravelly soil) sits at mid-slope and yields wines known for their unique combination of finesse and density. Joseph Drouhin owns a significant, steep parcel here, which they farm according to strict organic and biodynamic principles to ensure the "natural answer" to the terroir is expressed in the glass.
Wine Description
Joseph Drouhin Beaune Grèves 2023 presents an intense, bright ruby color with a sophisticated sensory profile. The nose displays vibrant aromas of red currant and black cherries, layered with spicy notes and hints of smoke. On the palate, the wine is powerful yet refined, showcasing a "seductive harmony" between its ripe fruit density and polished tannins. It is characterized by a distinct aftertaste of crème de cassis (blackcurrant cream) and delicate touches of well-integrated wood. This 100% Pinot Noir reached an ABV of 13% and was matured for 14 to 18 months in French oak (25% new).
Food Pairing
The structured tannins and spicy fruit of the Grèves Rouge make it an excellent partner for savory, high-quality meats. It pairs perfectly with herb-crusted rack of lamb, roasted pork, or grilled veal. Its mineral undercurrent and berry notes also complement roasted quail, duck, or a hearty meat stew. For a simple yet refined match, it is an ideal companion for wild mushroom dishes or semi-mature French cheeses. For the best expression, serve at a cool room temperature of 16°C.
