Beaune Rouge 2005Clos des Mouches, J. Drouhin
5lscl, owc
Bottle (12)
Wines from the cellar of a world-renowned collector. Recognized for his deep relationships with Europe’s most famous estates and an important cog in the inner-circle of LA’s most reputable connoisseurs, our collector stored all his treasures in a purpose built cellar with impeccable insulation and redundant temperature and humidity control.
“Representing huge domaine holdings and in effect the Drouhin flag ship, their 2005 Beaune Clos des Mouches displays aromas of roasted meat, wood smoke, black truffles, plum and black raspberry. Persistently meaty in the mouth, with plum pit and wet stone adjuncts, this is archetypal 2005: richly ripe yet with an invigorating tart fresh edge and quite dark, even somber in flavor shadings. The long savory finish, while pouring out a generous helping of top quality fruit and meat juices, also offers a veritable catalog of mineral nuances ... if only one had names for them all.” (92 pts. David Schildknecht, Wine Advocate, June 2007)
“After taking a year off in 2004 (it was not released because of hail), the red Clos des Mouches is back and in excellent form with a high-toned and wonderfully seductive nose of raspberry and strawberry aromas nuanced by hints of oak, spice and earth that continues on the rich, sweet and solidly detailed medium full flavors, all wrapped in a delicious, supple and relatively forward finish supported by buried tannins. Like the Grèves, this is so well balanced that it should age effortlessly.” (92 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound, April 2007)
