Drouhin's 2015 Cote de Beaune opens in the glass to reveal a pretty nose of red berries, pomegranate, licorice and incipient rich soil. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep at the core for its level, and structured by sappy acids and velvety tannins which assert themselves with chalky grip on the finish. Drouhin's C?te de Beaune, which includes barrels of declassified villages and premier cru wine, is sometimes rather precocious in its youth, but the 2015 rendition is unusually tight-knit and will amply reward a few years—or more—in the cellar.
