  • This is a good old-fashioned rustic Pommard, just starting to enter its optimal drinking window, even for a village wine. Sinewy, slightly stemmy nose that shows spice and brambly fruit, with anise, cranberry and pomegranate notes. Improved with air and was best on day 2, when it began to mellow and show a bit more of its pretty cherry-laced red fruit core.

  • Very pretty wine, albeit not overly complex. Smoky red & black fruit on the nose. The palate is a little more straightforward, but this is enjoyable.

  • Really good bottle, great showing. Opened at 4:30, the best glass is at 9:30. Plum and blackberry fruit, but the whole thing is shot through with this heady muskiness, this aphrodisiac kind of animale quality. This does not have the midpalate depth or density of a 1er cru wine, it is not a profound thing. That said, it does truly li9nbger on the finish. It is, however, a beauful expression of villages Pommard in a very good vintage, and it is very rewarding in that way. Hard minerality and structure, musky and gentle in fruit and texture. Delicious and interesting wine.

  • A translucent ruby in the glass, with a great Pinot nose with some feral scents, and dark, "brooding" black & red fruits.

    Less substantive on the palate - pleasant, but somewhat soft, with ripe black fruits. Very likable, and this bottle seems very "ready" to me.

  • Showed tight and unyielding, which is disappointing, considering the beauty of the bottle a couple of years ago.
