Joseph Drouhin - Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Mouches Rouge 2007
Notes: RVF 16/20, Bettane & Desseauve 15.5/20
"Clos des Mouches, as always, delivers a very refined performance" (Les Meilleurs Vins de France - RVF 2010) In both red and white, Le Clos des Mouches is one of the legendary wines of Maison Drouhin, which owns the largest parcel of this cru, planted midway up a gentle south-facing slope in the Beaune appellation, near Pommard. Organically farmed since 1990, this exceptional wine consistently delivers a sense of fullness with beautiful balance and racy, noble tannins. A great Burgundy.

About the estate:
The estate is now led by Frédéric Drouhin, supported by his sister Véronique for the wines and his brother Philippe for the vineyards. In July 2013, it opened a wine bar in the heart of Beaune. It has found its stride and is establishing itself as a sure bet. The estate draws on a biodynamic vineyard particularly well-stocked with great white wines, in the Côte-de-Beaune as well as in Chablis (wines sold under the Drouhin-Vaudon label), including the famous Clos des Mouches.

January 2014 tasting. For wines of comparable quality, the value for money does not work in its favor
