Joseph Drohin Beaune Clos des Mouches Blanc 2011

An outstanding wine. Pale yellow colour. Complex floral nose of white lilac and white rose. Once open, fruity aromas come to the fore, evolving towards grilled hazelnut and also almond. When the wine is more mature, the nose is surprisingly strong and fifteen minutes of aeration produce wonderful notes of white truffle, citron, honey and nutmeg, elegantly meshed together. Very lively on the palate. It’s rich texture is in evidence, but also its structure and minerality. It is round, but never heavy. Harmonious fullness in after taste.
