2020 Joseph Drouhin Beaune Clos des Mouches Blanc Premier Cru 1x750ml

Robert Parker 93

The 2020 Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Mouches Blanc (Domaine) wafts from the glass with aromas of honeyed pears, freshly baked bread, buttery pastry, Meyer lemon and baking spices. Medium to full-bodied, ample and enveloping, its textural attack segues into a fleshy but vibrant core of fruit and a long, saline finish. [William Kelley, 01/09/2022]

Vinous 91

The 2020 Beaune Clos des Mouches Blanc 1er Cru has a tight bouquet at first, opening with fresh pear and light orchard fruit scents, grass clippings/dewy meadow. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, a touch of white chocolate and almond that lends a little panache towards the finish. Fine length. Excellent. [Neal Martin, 02/03/2022]
