Robert Parker (94)

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.

Very clean, elegant and lots of promise on the nose. Fleshy fruit, purity of flavour but underpinned with vibrant acidity. Quite a bit of weight and spice here. Give it 6 months in bottle to settle and it will be very good. Expensive.

Jasper Morris (96)

Fresh light lemon colour. The bouquet indicates a little more flesh, as is typical, but not at the expense of precision. As always this is extraordinarily intense on the palate, not yet as fleshy as it will become, but one can see into the future. Fine fruit and acid balance too, of course. 13.7% alcohol which makes sense for Clos des Mouches.
