Drouhin's Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche is one of the legendary wines of Burgundy.
There are many who say that the Marquis de Laguiche parcel is the greatest in all of Montrachet.
 |
The Drouhin family has farmed this prestigious 2.06-hectare vineyard since 1947, though it has belonged since 1363 to one of the oldest aristocratic families in France, from whom it takes its name.
If Montrachet is known for a coating lavishness, Marquis de Laguiche carries this grandeur with an uncommon energetic mineral streak. Montrachet doesn't get any more graceful or finessed than Drouhin's Marquis de Laguiche. It's the combination of powerful, layered complexity with a detailed, vibrant minerality that has landed the wine a huge fan club. Taste Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche and it's clear that it's a wine for the ages.
The sun-soaked 2018 vintage produced wines of uncommon power, which blends seamlessly with the crystal clear style of Drouhin. This is a wine that will inspire awe in its youth and age gracefully for decades.
Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche is one of the crown jewels of Burgundy. It's always a pleasure to offer.

Burghound "An overtly spicy nose possesses really lovely layering with its combination of white peach, lemon rind, jasmine tea, soft oak and pretty floral nuances. Once again there is a strikingly sophisticated texture to the dense and sleekly muscular broad-shouldered flavors that coat the palate with sappy dry extract while buffering the firm acid spine shaping the hugely long finale. As is often the case with the Drouhin Montrachet, this is a big but very classy wine that marries power with refinement."
