Neal Martin, March 2022, Score: 91
The 2020 Beaune Clos des Mouches Blanc 1er Cru has a pretty bouquet, a little more floral than when I tasted it in January. The palate is very well-balanced, quite elegant in style with peach skin and a touch of stem ginger on the finish. Lovely. Drink 2023-2039.

Region
Beaune
The viticultural capital of Burgundy, Beaune was the headquarters to the Duchy in the 13th century and is now home to many winemakers and négociants. The appellation of Beaune includes both reds and white wines, though the quantity of red is significantly greater. The soils are predominantly sandier than either those to the north in Aloxe Corton or those to the south in Volnay or Pommard, producing wines that are supple and early drinking in nature. Similar to other surrounding Côte de Beaune appellations, there are no grand crus, but it does offer 42 premier cru sites, some of which are exceptional. These include Les Grèves, Les Teurons and Les Vignes Franches.
