Drouhin's Vosne 1er Cru is one of the great values in their vast and formidable lineup.
You don't have to look any further than the sites that are historically included in the wine to have a clear picture of what makes it special. It typically comes from Petits Monts, Malconsorts and Chaumes. The first two in particular are among the top sites in what's arguably Burgundy's greatest village.

Drouhin was incredibly successful in 2022. As The Wine Advocate's William Kelley writes: "The Drouhin family remains committed to the ideal of elegance, and the 2022 vintage has played into their hands in that respect, producing a crop of sensual, charming wines that come warmly recommended."
Drouhin's 2022s take the domaine's hallmarks of finesse and purity and adds an adroitly managed balance of delicacy matched with plenty of supple, mid-palate weight. In classic Drouhin style, there is nothing exorbitantly flashy about this wine.
The 2022 Vosne 1er Cru has beautiful spice and high-toned notes. It also has a really impressive velvety texture. It is strikingly regal with a beautiful mineral spine.
The Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru is one of my favorite bottles from Drouhin's vast lineup. It dramatizes the haunting purity that Drouhin's wines are capable of. The 2022 really shines in this regard.
