($15, Dreyfus Ashby): The low yielding 2012 vintage produced concentrated white Burgundies, which are just starting to appear on our shores.  The best producers, such as Drouhin, managed to combine that concentration with uplifting acidity.  The meager harvest, which concentrated the flavors, gave an extra boost to places like Mâcon where wines can often be dilute.  Drouhin’s 2012 Mâcon-Lugny combines good ripeness and an appealing subtle creaminess with a mouth-cleansing freshness.  It’s a great introduction to white Burgundy at a very attractive price.
