En Primeur | Domaine Drouhin Laroze

Founded in 1850, this 12 hectare domaine is now run by the fifth and sixth generations: parents Christine and Philippe, and children Caroline and Nicolas. They have an embarrassment of riches within their armoury of four 1ers Crus and six exceptional Grands Crus, culminating with plots of both Clos de Bèze and Le Musigny. They also boast one of the finest two storey cellars in the Côte d’Or, built by members of the Prussian military on their way back from the Hundred Years War, with ideal conditions maintaining perfect temperatures for Philippe’s preferred two-year élevage in cask.

2024 Gevrey Chambertin Dix Climats Drouhin Laroze

    Four hectares of village Gevrey Chambertin in ten different locations is a sizeable parcel and, as a result, this cuvée is a superb example of this famous Côte de Nuits appellation. Sweet red fruits are complemented by dark spice and an edge of bitter black cherry. They have used 40% oak in this cuvee which adds a lovely texture and warmth which hugs the mouth. The grapes were all vinified together which brings harmony and balance to the richness and structure. A classic for any Gevrey lover.

  • Burghound, April 2026, Score: 89-91

    (“Dix Climats” means 10 vineyards). A much earthier and more deeply pitched nose reflects notes of plum, dark wild currant and forest floor. On the palate there is a also an attractive texture to the middle weight flavors even if it is not as refined as that of the Chambolle, all wrapped in a mildly rustic and youthfully austere finale that displays fine length. This too is a very good villages and worth checking out. Drink 2031+.

  • Matthew Jukes, January 2026, Score: 18/20

    This is one of a vanishingly small collection of Gevreys that I liked in 2024. It avoids the trap of being hard, oaky, dried out and too lean, by confounding the senses with flesh, spice and controlled tannins. Chapeau.

  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2025

    The Drouhin Laroze plot is one of the very best in this appellation, named after the place of worship, just below Chambertin Clos de Bèze and 0.53 hectares. 20% whole bunch has been used here to balance the higher proportion of new oak. Flavours of crushed redcurrants and raspberry bring refinement and lift to the cuvée, with a tonka bean note and very fine texture. The pretty and gentle nose belies the serious personality of wine with its never-ending finish and succulent, suede-like tannins. A spectacular Grand Cru.

  • Burghound, April 2026, Score: 90-93

    (from a .52 ha parcel in En La Chapelle). Moderately generous wood stops short of fighting with the aromas of mostly spiced plum and violet. The rich, very generous and suave larger-scaled flavors display good power, size and weight on the lingering and lightly austere finish where the only nit is a touch of warmth. Drink 2034.

  • JMO, November 2025, Score: 91-93

    A bright ruby colour, greater density than any of the earlier wines in the series. The bouquet suggests density of fruit as well, without being especially forthcoming. the acidity is certainly present but integrates quite well with the darker raspberry fruit. Fair length. Drink from 2030-2036.

    Lying at the top of the Clos just by the Château, in a parcel called “des Papes” reputedly reserved for the Popes of Avignon, the Drouhin Laroze hectare of vines is one of the very best positioned in Clos de Vougeot. A supremely concentrated wine, dense flavours of cassis and cherry and complemented by cinnamon and touches of liquorice. This has a broad and generous feel with power generated from the very small grapes that are harvested. Brilliant vibrancy keeps this wine marching forwards and will ensure delight when opened in years to come.

  • JMO, November 2025, Score: 93-95

    All destemmed, which is normal chez Drouhin-Larose for Clos Vougeot. A much darker colour and showing a touch of oak alongside evidently ripe fruit. Clearly a certain amount of power here. Definitely a sense of sucrosity and some tannins to finish. Drink from 2033-2040.

  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2025

    A very old vine parcel, planted by Nicolas and Caroline’s grandfather in the 1960s. Only 4 barrels made this year, so quantities are very limited. The grapes from this site are late to ripen on the old vines which allows them to slowly develop complexity and a spiced nature. The berries are always small and concentrated giving flavours of blackberries and herbal notes of rosemary and dried oregano. Perfect ripeness was achieved here with gentle succulence and fine tannins.

  • Burghound, April 2026, Score: 91-94

    (from a .67 ha parcel of extremely old vines). Pungent aromas of wood and reduction dominate the nose today. Much more attractive are the cool, intense and almost crisp middle weight flavors that possess terrific delineation on the moderately austere, overtly mineral-driven and strikingly complex finale. This is pretty much textbook Latricières, though patience will absolutely be necessary. This is really quite classy. Drink 2034+.

  • JMO, November 2025, Score: 93-96

    Slightly lighter in colour, with a pleasingly fragrant nose, including some cherries. The fragrance grows in the glass. The body builds very well too, with more dark raspberries in the mix. A certain sucrosity because the tannins are very refined. Drink from 2032-2038.

  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2025

    This great Grand Cru was a favourite of the monks of Cluny in the early days of classification. The Drouhin Laroze 1.5 hectares are particularly important; planted in 1949 they are over 70 years old and produce fruit of exceptional quality and intensity. The 2024 vintage may have reduced the availability of this wine, but it has not dampened the intensity and power. Super fresh with striking dark berry and chocolate notes, with a present, sweet clove spice and jasmine floral nature. Elegant and brooding, this lasts forever on the finish and is moreish-ly silky.

  • Burghound, April 2026, Score: 91-94

    (from a parcel of 1.5 ha of vines planted in 1949). Moderate wood can be found on the markedly spicier aromas of dark cherry, wild currant and discreet exotic tea scents. There is good vibrancy and an appealing texture, though no better than average density, to the sleek, powerful and compact flavors that exude a subtle bead of minerality on the lingering if mildly warm finale. Once again, patience strongly recommended. Drink 2036+.

  • JMO, November 2025, Score: 93-95

    Ruby purple, not the deepest. While there is some depth of fruit, the true nobility of the vineyard is not immediately apparent. Greater weight emerges on the palate, and some energy from the 15% whole bunches at the finish, but this is still work in progress. More elevage needed. Drink from 2033-2040.

    The name Craipillots is a reference to the stony soils in the vineyard, which sits between the Domaine and Combe Lavaux. This is a very flat and mineral site. The familiar whole bunch aromas are here, wild strawberry and sharp cranberry with direct mineral intensity. Its quietly powerful nature sits behind ripe black plum on tasting with a long and complex finish. Extremely sophisticated.
