About this Item

2004 Cote de Beaune Rouge
12 (2 x 6) 750ml

In 1880, a 22-year-old Joseph Drouhin settled in Beaune and founded his own wine company. His son Maurice succeeded him and established a domaine for the Drouhin house by buying land in outstanding appellations including the famous Clos des Mouches and Clos de Vougeot. Today, 4th generation Véronique Drouhin continues the family’s prestigious Burgundy legacy. With 73 hectares of biodynamically-farmed vines, Joseph Drouhin is one of Burgundy’s largest estates. With vineyards in close to 90 different appellations, Drouhin offers a fascinating array of Burgundy terroirs.

Critics Ratings

'Wow this has aged beautifully. Decaying leaves, dried orange peel and spice intertwine with cool red fruits. Soft, elegant and delicious.' - 90/100 Roland Peens (2019)
