Joseph Drouhin Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche 1985 750mL is a grand cru white Burgundy from the Le Montrachet vineyard on the Côte de Beaune, bottled at 750mL by Maison Joseph Drouhin under the historic Marquis de Laguiche lease.
From the Producer
Maison Joseph Drouhin was founded in Beaune in 1880 and today farms biodynamically across Burgundy and Chablis. The Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche label reflects an agreement dating back to 1363, when the Laguiche family became one of the principal leaseholders of the Montrachet grand cru vineyard; Drouhin vinifies and ages the Laguiche parcels. From this storied terroir the wine is a Chardonnay of restrained power, built for long cellaring, with the 1985 vintage showing the firm acidity and structure of the cool, classic-era Côte de Beaune.
