The Droin 2006 Chablis Les Clos is slightly reduced and tight in its youth, but the depth of stony and saline minerality; the wine’s store of refreshing citrus; and its sheer concentration and length, promise a fascinating future. Give this 3-4 years in the cellar and expect it to last at least ten.
Benoit Droin’s recent collections display increasing mastery of his medium and continued willingness to experiment, even as he extends his range of crus. His have become some of the most interesting wines in Chablis, not to mention being outstanding values. Droin prides himself on being able to harvest ahead of most of his colleagues – which in 2006 meant in advance of the official starting date – although he adds that 2007 has proved an exception to that rule. Droin by choice sells what for the region constitutes a relatively high one third share of his wine inside France.
