Review:

The 2011 vintage is yet another elegant Chardonnay from Domaine Drouhin.

2009 Vintage Tasting Notes

The 09 Chardonnay is a unique blend of wine-making techniques. Half of the juice was fermented in French Oak, the rest in stainless steel. This combination created a round, rich texture. This wine is an elegant expression of Chardonnay.

2007 Vintage Tasting Notes

Domaine Drouhin's Arthur Chardonnay shows that 2006 provided an abundance of wonderfully ripe & healthy fruit displayed by the complexity in the Arthur. The nose first reveals aromas of carnation & magnolia followed by a hint of toast & lemon zest. After some time, the bouquet transitions to lemon verbena, cantaloupe & lychee. Wonderfully balanced, the Arthur is round & full on the palate leading into a clean, fresh, lingering finish. This incredible length suggests pairings of shellfish & ripe cheeses, or cellaring for 3-5 years.
