🍇 Elegant, Complex, and Timelessly Burgundian

🍷 In the Glass
Brilliant deep ruby with garnet reflections, glowing with clarity and depth.

👃 On the Nose
A vibrant and complex bouquet of red fruits—Morello cherry, raspberry, and wild strawberry—interwoven with notes of blackberry, subtle smokiness, and hints of licorice. With age, aromas of pepper, tobacco leaf, forest floor, and earthy humus emerge in graceful layers.

🍽 On the Palate
Silky and structured with a fleshy, clear entry. The palate is refined and precise, with a firm yet polished body. Youthful freshness leads to an elegant evolution—velvety texture, supple tannins, and harmonious balance carry through to a lingering, intense finish.

🍽️ Food Pairing
Ideal with duck breast, game birds, mushroom risotto, roasted quail, or a fine beef Wellington. Also pairs beautifully with aged cheeses like Comté or Brie de Meaux.

⏳ Ageing Potential
A wine for the ages—beautiful in its youth for its freshness, but capable of evolving over 15–20+ years into a silky, nuanced masterpiece.

💫 Why You’ll Love It
Clos des Mouches Rouge is the epitome of great Burgundy—vibrant yet serene, powerful yet graceful. Each bottle offers a journey through elegance, terroir, and time—a true collector’s treasure.
