Joseph Drouhin 2012 Côte de Nuits-Villages: An affordable red Burgundy that satisfies!

Hello Friends,

Today’s Quick Sip is the 2012 Côte de Nuits-Villages from Joseph Drouhin. At the ripe old age of 22, Joseph Drouhin founded his eponymous wine company in 1880. Today, it is one of the most well-known and largest estates in all of Burgundy, France. The historic business is currently headed by 4th generation family members. Over the years, the domain has garnered a very good reputation for consistency and quality. This particular village-level red Burgundy (Pinot Noir) from the Côte de Nuits region drinks nicely right now and is both satisfying and reasonably priced. If you are in the market for a solid red wine to wash down Thanksgiving leftovers or just an affordable weeknight red to enjoy with dinner, then look no further my friends. This red Burgundy retails for $35 but can be found for $22.99 at Cork Exclusive. And when you purchase three or more bottles of wines or spirits, shipping is free. For further information, please check out my tasting notes below.


Joseph Drouhin 2012 Côte de Nuits-Villages (SRP $35): Light ruby in color, this wine is poised and fresh with aromas and flavors redolent of tart red berry fruit followed by earth tones, baking spice notes, and muted floral impressions. In the mouth, it’s medium-bodied, harmonious and savory, with good acidity, ending in soft, well-tamed tannins on the medium-length finish. A pleasant wine on its own, this is also a good bottle to share with family and friends at the dinner table. Try it with red sauce dishes, rotisserie chicken, grilled salmon, light cheeses and more. Region: Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France. Other info: ABV 13%, aged 12 to 15 months in French oak barrels (10% new), cork enclosure.
