They 2016 Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Mouches Blanc escaped hail damage (for a change!). It has an attractive bouquet, quite floral in style with yellow flowers, orange zest and a touch of lemon peel. I like the energy here. The palate is well balanced with a slightly honeyed texture, a fine thread of acidity, quite dense and rich on the finish that caresses the mouth. I would like just a little more mineralité to show through by the time of bottling, and if so, it will merit a higher score. There is certainly potential here.

Right on the border with Pommard. This wine is from a 7-hectare plot of chardonnay within this climat. There’s a spiced hazelnut edge across an array of white peaches and citrus fruits. It has a strong core structure with fleshy surrounds. Long, dense and smooth.
