This delightful wine boasts pronounced aromas of ripe mulberry and plum accented with a hint of earth and pencil lead ? the tone is much deeper and richer than the same wine last year and the texture is more substantial. This wine should open in three to five years and should age well. The grapes are from a third of a hectare located against the wall of Grands Epenots just west of the Route des Grands Crus. The grapes are destemmed and gently fermented; four of the seven casks this year are new although there is plenty of substance to absorb the wood. (Drink between 2027 - 2055)
The 2022 Pommard Clos Blanc 1er Cru has an expressive nose with red berry fruit a touch of pine cone and Provençal herbs well-defined and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins. Very well-balanced - not a powerful Pommard though the finish is silky smooth caressing and quite sensual (for Pommard). Very fine. (Drink between 2025 - 2042)
Fresh medium purple. Lighter in style. Light raspberry plus alpine strawberry on the elegant side for this appellation but still with some grip at the back. Easily juicy enough medium bodied fine length.
