The 2016 Beaune 1er Cru ‘Clos des Mouches’ is a sterling effort from one of the stalwarts of Burgundy. It has an immensely charming and complex nose of dark berry fruit, white pepper, earth and toasty oak. On the palate it is fleshy, vibrant and multi-layered with broad brushstrokes of tannin and a superbly long finish.

The 2016 Beaune Clos des Mouches 1er Cru feels a little static at the moment compared to its peers with plush, slightly confit-like red fruit and the oak conspicuous at present. It’s not overbearing, just a little trop. The palate is medium-bodied with juicy ripe, black fruit laced with charcoal and brine notes, gentle in grip but it might well be amidst an awkward phase. I would like to revisit this in a couple of years time. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting in Burgundy. Neal Martin1st October 2019
