In a night of many firsts, this was my first time trying Clos des Mouches which is a remarkable monopole that was assembled by Drouhin back in the early part of last century. Famously, Beaune has no Grand Cru vineyards but if there was every going to be one, Clos des Mouches would probably be the vineyard. And if this 2019 is an indicator of the standard of quality, it’s no wonder why. This was gorgeous; a wine of pedigree. It seemed to have layers of depth and concentration that certainly gave off GC vibes. The purity of the fruit is sublime and the acid is brilliant, combining to create a wine of impeccable balance. Many, including myself, tend to poopoo large producer/négociants but it’s really unfair to make blanket judgements, particularly when you consider that they often own or control some of Burgundy’s most important sites. It is clear that great care goes into this wine. It’s special. Drink now and over the next 15+ years. A wow wine and divinely paired with diver scallops prepared with huitlacoche, mole, lion’s mane mushrooms, crispy potato and tamatillo salsa.
