Joseph Drouhin Macon Lugny Les Crays 2021

Winemaking
Sourced from the limestone-rich “Les Crays” vineyard in Mâcon-Lugny, southern Burgundy, this Chardonnay is vinified entirely in stainless steel to preserve its freshness and delicate fruit. Fermentation and maturation on fine lees enhance the wine’s roundness and subtle texture, creating a pure, fruit-forward expression of the region.

Bouquet
The nose is fragrant and lively, with notes of white flowers, green apple, lemon zest and a soft hint of acacia honey. Mineral and citrus aromas bring lift and clarity.

Palate
Bright, clean and inviting, the palate shows juicy orchard fruit, a touch of melon and zesty citrus. The texture is smooth with a lightly creamy mid-palate, balanced by fresh acidity and a soft mineral edge. A joyful and easy-drinking white Burgundy.

Food Pairing
Perfect with grilled fish, shellfish, or fresh goat cheese. Also lovely with vegetable quiche, lemony chicken or as a refreshing aperitif.

Cellaring
Best enjoyed young while its freshness is vibrant. Drink now through 2026.
