The 2017 Beaune Clos des Mouches Blanc 1er Cru has a light bouquet of apple peelings, hints of candle wax and white flower, though I would like a little more delineation. The palate is well balanced with good weight, opulent, slightly waxy in texture and richer on the finish than I would have expected for a 2017. I would drink this over the next several years. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.
Tasted from bottle, Drouhin's 2017 Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Mouches Blanc is showing very well, offering up aromas of fresh pear, Meyer lemon and grapefruit zest that are still quite youthfully marked by a generous application of buttery new oak that experience shows will integrate nicely with a little age. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, satiny and textural, with racy underlying acids, a fragrant core of fruit and a long, penetrating finish. This is a very elegant, aromatic rendition of this emblematic Drouhin cuvée.
