Domaine Joseph Drouhin Beaune Clos des Mouches 1er Cru White 2022
This Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Mouches 2022 is a superb white wine from Burgundy produced by Domaine Joseph Drouhin in organic and biodynamic farming. It comes from a 7-hectare plot located in the south of the Beaune appellation, adjoining Pommard, halfway up the hillside, gently sloping, facing east/south-east.
It offers a bright pale yellow colour and a rich and complex floral nose, with mixed notes of lilac and white rose, fruit, hazelnut and toasted almond. With age, aromas of white truffle, citron, honey and nutmeg develop. On the palate, it expresses itself with fullness and vivacity, a mineral background and a rich finish that is very persistent. In this Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Mouches, we find the elegance and fullness of the greatest white wines of the Côte de Beaune.
The name "Clos des Mouches" comes from the hives that this clos housed and the bees formerly called "honey flies". It was one of the very first vineyards acquired by Maurice Drouhin in the 1920s, which he managed to build up with about forty different plots. It is planted in red and white, in equal parts.

This wine can also be ordered in a wine gift box, to be found at the bottom of this page and in our selection of Burgundy wine boxes, for example in a Burgundy Prestige wine box.
