TASTING NOTES

This is the wine to reach for when you want to feel like you’re sipping on pure elegance and history in a glass. Domaine Jean-Paul et Benoit Droin’s 2023 Grand Cru ‘Hommage à Louis’ Chablis is a stunning tribute to tradition, carrying the spirit of its 1920 roots with effortless grace.

Bright citrus and delicate white flowers greet your senses, followed by a crisp wave of crushed stone minerality that feels like a fresh breeze over a sunlit vineyard. On the palate, it’s all about vibrant acidity balancing generous ripe fruit flavors, creating a silky texture that finishes long and mineral-driven—a true expression of Chablis at its finest.

This bottle is super limited and built to age beautifully, rewarding patience with layers of complexity over time. Think fresh oysters by the sea, a sophisticated dinner party, or a quiet moment where the world slows down just enough to savor every sip. It’s not just wine, it’s a chance to find your place in a moment that feels both timeless and totally now.

Scores

97/100

I believe that the authorities have now confirmed that all of Benoît Droin’s plots are properly within the boundaries of Les Clos, though Benoît will continue to use the Hommage epithet alongside the vineyard name. The 2023 Hommage à Louis has a clear and classic nose after the pale lemon colour. Brilliant balanced juice, the Clos transcends the vintage. All white fruit of course but some crunch to the white apple fruit. Juicy and generous but still with a fine firm classic core. Fabulous finish.
