Bright and clear in colour, with a pretty and fresh nose that starts discreetly, but very elegantly. Then the concentration on the palate kicks in. Really amazingly successful despite the pitifully low yield. Very long, fine finish.

Some of the Drouhin flagship vineyards have suffered as badly as any from the hail. Their yield in the Clos des Mouches was between six and eight hl/ha, depending on the plot! We have fought for the best allocations possible though because the Drouhin wines are glorious in 2012. They have added a new laser-optic sorting machine and have used fewer whole bunches in vinification, but given the wines a longer period of maceration in the vats. They have also hired a special smallscale bottling line for the little lots.
