The 1er Cru Baudes is one of the great, under-the-radar sites of Chambolle.
Today, I'm happy to offer Drouhin's 2017 Baudes at the lowest price in the country by a very healthy margin.
Drouhin's Baudes is one of my favorites of Drouhin's lineup. The issue is that with only 0.33ha of holdings in Baudes, it's very difficult to have enough wine for an offering.

I'm very happy to have the opportunity to offer the 2017 Baudes. Drouhin's 2017s are stunning. Across the board, their 2017 collection is beautiful, diamond cut, and seriously elegant.
At $119.95 per bottle, Drouhin's 2017 1er Cru Baudes delivers a lot of class and complexity for the price. I should underscore how sharp the pricing is - the wine is rare, but the two other listings out there are priced at $185.
Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru Les Baudes sits just below Bonnes Mares. It delivers wines of incredible silky depth and power. The combination of layered complexity, drive, and textural appeal that Baudes delivers is really impressive.
Drouhin's Baudes is always refined, understated, and possesses an explosive nuance. The 2017 is an ultra-pure expression of the wine. It offers an amazing spectrum of aromatics with a blazingly clear minerality. The wine is focused, long, and simply lovely in the way that only Chambolle can be.
I should emphasize that this is an extremely modest parcel. Insiders know that this is a serious bottle, and the pricing is really sharp. I expect a quick sell out.
