A real Clos des Mouches` is how Véronique Drouhin describes this textbook expression of one of Beaune`s two best white Premiers Crus. Every bit as good as some more famous Grands Crus, it`s floral and enticing, with aromas of hawthorn blossom and lilies, flavours of patisserie and orange zest, fine, scented, toasty oak and the structure and acidity to age. Just shades it over the red Clos des Mouches in 2018. Drink 2022 - 2032. 96 points
