91 Points

Saturday, January 12, 2013 - Popped and poured. Wine stain all the way up the cork, stopping just short of the outer edge. Bricky light ruby hue with hints of rust color. After a few minutes the nose was pumping wafts of mulberry, forest floor, iron, thyme, and black currant. Lively and fresh (and still tannic) on the palate with layers of briar, black cherry, iron, and leather. Still freshened by ample acidity. Firm, almost austere structure. Long finish of incisive red fruits and mineral. The fruit began to recede somewhat as the evening progressed. Muscular Pommard evolving constantly throughout the evening - what a treat to sample it tonight. From a 375.
