Description

Description:

Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Mouches Rouge, Joseph Drouhin is a benchmark Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy' most historic and revered Premier Cru vineyards. Situated on the southern slopes of Beaune, Clos des Mouches has long been a jewel in the Drouhin family's crown, celebrated for producing wines of remarkable balance, finesse, and ageing potential. The vineyard's ideal exposition and limestone-rich soils yield a red wine that seamlessly combines structure with elegance - the hallmarks of a great Côte de Beaune Pinot Noir.

Tasting Notes
Appearance: Brilliant ruby red with hints of garnet, showing both vibrancy and depth.

Nose: Refined and complex, the bouquet reveals an aromatic tapestry of red cherry, raspberry, and wild strawberry, intertwined with subtle notes of rose petal, spice, and forest floor. A gentle touch of oak adds hints of vanilla, clove, and cedar, enhancing the wine’s aromatic richness.

Palate: Silky and layered, the palate opens with fresh red fruits, moving into deeper flavours of blackcurrant, plum, and baking spice. The tannins are fine and well-integrated, supported by a lively acidity that gives the wine poise and length. Earthy undertones and a whisper of minerality add depth and complexity.

Finish: Long, elegant, and beautifully balanced, with lingering notes of red berry, spice, and subtle oak, offering a graceful and satisfying conclusion.

Clos des Mouches Rouge by Joseph Drouhin is a wine of pedigree and precision. An exceptional expression of Premier Cru Burgundy that evolves beautifully in the glass and in the cellar. It showcases the timeless elegance and terroir-driven complexity that define Burgundy at its best.
