2017 Joseph Drouhin Beaune Clos des Mouches

Tasting Notes

Clos de la Mouche 2017 is one of the great wines of Burgundy. The deep ruby ​​red color reveals an intense and fresh nose when young. After a few years of aging, the wine with aromas of fresh fruit will evolve towards smoky nuances, liquorice, tobacco, humus, spices and undergrowth. A racy wine that rounds out over time and offers an incredible feeling of fullness and balance.
