"Two barrels, one new. Some Mazoyères fruit included, small part whole bunch. Brooding and powerful, yet balanced by fresh acidity and fine structure. A wine of presence and gravitas."
Stewart Pryce, Honest Grapes Wine Club Manager
Maison Edouard Delaunay is a story of rebirth. Since re-emerging, the team has established a remarkable reputation, particularly for its whites, which show bright, front-foot-forward fruit and unmistakable precision. There is no set recipe for each vintage; each wine reflects its terroir, and each year presents a new challenge to express the land faithfully.
With 52 appellations produced in 2024 - just a third of a regular vintage due to careful selection - the domaine continues to prioritise quality over quantity, focusing on what truly matters: the character of each plot.
What the critics say:
"Moderate wood stops short of fighting with the attractively layered blend of both red and dark currant, suggestions of the sauvage and a hint of forest floor character. Much like those of the Clos de Vougeot, the middle weight flavors possess a lovely texture if no better than acceptable density on the youthfully austere and compact finale. This could use better depth so at least a few years of bottle aging are in order."
"Bright mid ruby. Luminescent. Red-cherry and raspberry nose. Good intensity to the palate with a typical sweet, unctuous core of Charmes fruit. There is definite breadth and bulk to this, even some denser chalky tannins, but showing depth and concentration."
