"Mouches" the medieval French word for bees.

Berthelemot is a young domaine, created as recently as 2006, as a result of the merging of the mature holdings of the Jean Garaudet and Yves Darviot estates. As well as initial acquisitions in Beaune, Pommard, Monthélie and Meursault, in 2012, the estate purchased established plots in Puligny, Chassagne, and again in Meursault to meet the demand for its white wines.

From a 0.34 hectare parcel of Beaune 1er Cru Chardonnay vines planted in clay/limestone soils in 1986, lying at an altitude of between 250 and 270 metres above sea level. The name of this wines is especially pertinent  - "Mouches" is the medieval French word for bees. The Domaine use biodynamic practices and grapes were hand harvested before being vinified and aged in oak barrels.

Domaine Berthelemot Beaune Premier Cru Clos des Mouches Blanc wine has delicate aromas combining citrus and other fresh fruit; it is both mineral and richly rounded on the palate with a long aftertaste. The fineness of the fragrance is unveiled when aging with some elegant tertiary aromas combining with the fruit. This is a grand wine for grand foods: grilled lobster or langoustines, foie gras, or L'Epoisses cheese.
