Clos De Mouche

1961 Burgundy Red Blend

The Joseph Drouhin Clos De Mouche from the renowned Burgundy region is a captivating red blend that showcases the artistry of winemaking in this esteemed area. This vintage from 1961 boasts a beautifully deep red color that hints at its rich heritage. With a body that is both sophisticated and smooth, it reveals a complexity that only time can bestow.

Tannins are gracefully integrated, lending a structured yet elegant mouthfeel that invites further exploration with each sip. This wine is masterfully dry, allowing the intricate layers of flavor to shine through, making it an extraordinary example of Burgundy's vinous excellence.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
