Drouhin Beaune C-Mouche (W) 03

Drouhin Beaune 1er Cru ‘Clos des Mouches’ Blanc 2003
13.5% alc., domaine wine, from the 25.18 ha site on the Pommard side, 12.6 ha planted to Chardonnay on the upper parts. Straw yellow colour with a pale edge. Full, powerful nose, quit fat and dense with rich tropical fruit flavours and mealiness. There is a high oak content here. Full and weighty, fat, dense and powerful, this is rich and oaky. A very solid wine, chunky even. Here the fruit and oak more in balance. Excellent length, this will age well. My score 18.0+/20 RC June 06
