It’s Chablis season! Chablis is one of the most under-priced meet over-delivering white wine regions on the planet. We’re sharing one of Dave Sokolin’s favorite Chablis producers, Jean Paul Droin, whose wines we know you’ll love!
Droin’s wines are produced by father / son team, Jean Paul and Benoit, and their family has cultivated vines in Chablis for almost 400 years. They produce Petit Chablis, Chablis, Premier Cru and Grand Cru wines.
"Jean Paul Droin is the next big thing in Chablis and is Chablis' greatest over achiever. You've got to try his wines. Think a more complex version of Fevre. I enjoy every wine I taste of his, and I keep his wines at my beach house all summer. They have an extra level of richness and intensity that are associated with wines that cost 2-3x more! Jean Paul Droin’s wines blow peoples’ minds for $35 - $129 / bottle." - Dave Sokolin
“People often cite Domaines Raveneau and Vincent Dauvissat as the two greatest exponents of Chablis, however, I would like to add a third – Domaine Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin. Over the last five or six years, Benoit Droin has really ratcheted up the quality. I cannot exaggerate how often Droin’s wines end up the best of the flight during the annual “Burgfest” blind tastings. Again and again, they shine against stiff competition. It is time to accept that Droin is now one of the leading producers in Chablis.” – Neal Martin, Vinous Media
