Aromas of buttered orchard fruit, orange blossom, baking spices and toasted nuts introduce the 2022 Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Mouches Blanc (Domaine), with a medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny palate that's fleshy and layered while retaining nice tension and cut. The Drouhin's seven hectares of Chardonnay in this premier cru were harvested over 15 days.
The 2022 Beaune Clos des Mouches Blanc 1er Cru had been racked into tank a fortnight earlier. It will cohere on the nose, but it already shows much promise: citrus fruit and orange pith, subtle touches of beeswax and white flowers. The medium-bodied palate has a fine definition and the best acidity of the whites I tasted, with fine tension on the finish. This should age well in bottle.
