As ever, this is the pinnacle of the Droin wines, and one of the finest grand cru cuvées in Chablis. Benoît says it needs 20 years to reach its peak. It is tight and nervous, with weighty power underneath. The special name of this cuvée is in celebration of Louis Droin, who bought this parcel in1920.

40% oak for Les Clos, which retains its Hommage à Louis soubriquet. A bright pale colour. Subtly perfumed on the nose, white flowers in full summer, excellent marine freshness at the finish, understated but fine and persistent. Drink from 2030-2036. Tasted Jun 2025.
The 2024 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru Hommage à Louis (the name is now officially ratified by the authorities) has the best aromatics among the Grand Crus, with more mineralité and intensity. Wet limestone and sea cave aromas burst from the glass. The palate is vibrant with energy and tension. It has a light reduction that Droin attributes to the blue clay soils and a complex, persistent finish. The 2024 is excellent!
