Product Notes

Joseph Drouhin Saint-Romain is a sublime French wine emanating from Burgundy's esteemed vineyards. It presents a stunning gold-green hue, replete with an exquisite aromatic bouquet, profuse in notes of hazelnut, honey, and spring flowers. On the palate, Saint-Romain leaves intriguing traces of apple, citrus fruits and white peach, skillfully enveloped in a silky texture. Its refreshing acidity is finely balanced with nuanced minerality, resulting in a harmonious blend and long regal aftertaste. A delightful companion to poultry or seafood dishes, Drouhin's Saint-Romain is a remarkable testimony to the distinguished winemaking traditions of Burgundy.

Tasting Notes

A very typical wine, representative of its terroir. A bright golden hue, with a greenish touch. Very fine aromas of white flowers (honeysuckle) and ripe fruit (yellow plums), evolving towards honey and gingerbread. On the palate, straightforward and lively at first, then richness and roundness. This wine dispalys a mineral "pebbly" ("caillou") quality is the hallmark of Saint-Romain.
