We are very pleased to welcome back Laurent Drouhin of Domaine Joseph Drouhin for a preview tasting of the Domaine's 2012 vintage. This is truly a rare treat as the 2012 vintage yielded the smallest crop in the last 50 years at Domaine Drouhin, in fact critics were not allowed to taste at the Domaine due to lack of wine, and the Domaine had to purchase new barrels in order to accommodate the smaller crop: “The vinification of such a small quantities springs its own set of problems; after all, you cannot fill all your barrels with marbles to keep them topped up”. Despite everything that mother nature threw at them Domaine Drouhin produced a stunning set of wines in 2012. Please join us in welcoming Laurent back to St Louis and take this rare opportunity to taste and order these amazing 2012's quantities will be limited and subject to confirmation.
