Description
The vineyard of Chorey-les-Beaune was founded in 1237 by Edouard de Froment, the Duke of Burgundy'step-nephew.
The wine is often sold under the more common appellation of Côte-de-Beaune Villages. Joseph Drouhin owns vineyards in Chorey (pronounced "Sho-Ray").
Tasting
"A very pleasant wine.
Bright, clear red colour.
Aromas are surprising in their intensity and fruit.
On the palate, a tender, supple, graceful, round body. Very flavourful in the aftertaste, with a hint of blackberry jam.
When the wine gets older, wild blackberry is the dominant aroma. After 3 or 5 years, the wine takes on a distinctive smell of truffle and undergrowth evolving towards notes of venison".
