2012 Joseph Drouhin Beaune Clos Mouches Rouge

Media Reviews

Stephen Tanzer

Production here was just eight hectoliters per hectare, mostly due to hail, according to Frédéric Drouhin. Good medium red. Aromas of cherry, leather and musky underbrush. Very ripe, fat and full, showing a pronounced truffley underbrush character but little in the way of a hail taste. Strong dry extract and saline minerality nicely support the wine`s alcohol. Dusty tannins call for some aging. Not a high-pitched, fruity style but very concentrated.
