Expert Reviews
A very svelte, silky pinot noir that glides onto the palate with ripe cherries, cooked plums and a reserve of tangy, sour cherries that keep it lively and well balanced.
Pure, velvety and evoking black cherry, blackberry, violet, sandalwood and mineral aromas and flavors, this red is lushly textured and harmonious. Guided by vibrant acidity that drives the saturated aftertaste. Offers superb balance and length. Best from 2028 through 2047. 300 cases imported.
The 2022 Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Mouches (Domaine) is shaping up beautifully, revealing aromas of sweet cherries, cassis, licorice and spices deftly framed by toasty new oak. Medium to full-bodied, rich and layered, with a fleshy core of fruit, succulent acids and powdery tannins, the Drouhin's own fully 14 hectares of this prime premier cru, which is divided equally between Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
