Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Mouches (0.75 L)

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. One of Drouhin’s super-consistent bottlings year in and year out, and this is an excellent year. Drink now or hold.
