13% alcohol. Diam5 closure. The colour is very pale. Fresh nose of cherries with neither much complexity nor intensity, but at least it is distinctly Burgundy Pinot. The mouth is probably better, if pretty high pitched and somewhat simple, with redcurrant in evidence. My feeling is that this wine delivers just above the basic Bourgogne level, so it falls short of what I would expect of a Pommard, especially one that boasts of old vines; granted this is early days, so this could harmonise into a more satisfying drink, but I would not bet on it. Its strong suit is purity of fruit, and this is not to be sneezed at.
