Domaine Droin Chablis Hommage à Louis 2022 is a full-bodied dry white wine from the Chablis appellation of Burgundy. One of the oldest domaines in Chablis, dating back to at least the 1600s, Droin has long been associated with high-quality, terroir-focused Chablis wines thanks to the work of owner Jean-Paul Droin. The domaine is now managed by his son, Benoît, who continues to uphold his family`s enviable reputation. Hommage à Louis is the pinnacle of the domaine`s output – an unofficial Grand Cru Les Clos. "More prominent smoky mineral reduction wisps are present on the more elegant acacia blossom, iodine and shellfish aromas. There is outstanding size, weight and richness to the large-scaled flavours that coat the palate with sappy dry extract while pronounced stoniness becomes apparent on the compact, built-to-age and beautifully long finish. This, too, is very good and should have no trouble repaying a decade or so of cellaring." Burghound, 2023
Vinous
The 2022 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru Hommage à Louis has quite a malic, green apple and Anjou pear-scented nose that unfurls beautifully in the glass. The palate is taut and linear, with moderate depth, clamming up slightly towards the finish compared with the Grenouilles or Valmur.Neal Martin1st September 2023
