From holdings located in the south-facing climat Les Languettes, Drouhin produced three barrels of the 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru (Domaine), a medium to full-bodied, layered and nicely concentrated wine that's bright and structured, evocative of white flowers, pomelo, orange oil and buttery pastry. Rating: 93-95 William Kelley, The Wine Advocate (Jan 2021)

Domaine fruit, grown in Les Languettes, still in barrel, sadly just three of them. A little touch of coconut from the barrel and with a suggestion of intensity on the nose. Very considerable intensity of fruit on the palate, as if they had concentrated the flavour of all six barrels they normally make in just three. Very intense. Tasted: December 2020 **** Rating: 94-96 Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy (Dec 2020)
Joseph Drouhin
Despite the size of their vineyard holding, not all Drouhin's wines come from their own domaine, but most of the other wines do come from long-term contracts, such as exists with the Marquis de Laguiche wines. In all but name these wines are 'Domaine' wines, and the vineyards are cared for and the wines vinified with exactly the same care.
