Description
The origin of the name is oak tree ("chêne" in French) and this area may have been planted with oak trees at some time. The Drouhin family has kept a close watch over this vineyard: some notebooks written by Robert's father and grandfather have been handed down to the present generation and contain a treasure trove of information on the vineyard itself and its history.
Tasting
"A wine full of charm. A beautiful, intense and luminous, ruby colour. A floral nose dominated by an aroma of violet, a signature of this wine. Other delicate notes can be detected, such as rose jam and wild strawberry (fraise des bois). Good structure on the palate, with refined tannins. Nice texture with floral and fruity flavours that seem to linger for a long time".
Tasting note by Véronique Boss-Drouhin
Vintage
The wines develop a supple structure with plesant tannins. They display deep colours. They are evolving nicely, increasing in complexity and elegance.
