  April 16, 2019 - Red Burgundy tends to fall into either the 'Elegant' category or 'Power' category (occasionally both) and this was definitely in the latter the last time I tasted it a couple of years ago; however elegance now seems to be taking over. Poured straight from the bottle one is immediately hit with a simply wonderful bouquet, and on the palate there is the characteristic Pommard earth, iron and minerals, but with some lovely red fruit flavours coming to the fore too. Two years ago it was still rather spirity on the tongue, but that has all calmed down now and one is left with a delightfully balanced, rather feminine Clos des Epeneaux. This is now in its drinking window, but should still be happily chugging along over the next 5-10 years. A beautiful Pommard. Estimated maturity: Now-2025+
