Drink or Keep

pinot noir
long-keeping wine
1er cru

Pommard's fame in the 19th century gave it the image of a virile wine. In reality, terroirs, vinifications and age nuance this portrait to offer a wine rich in sensitivity. This deep red offers notes of red and black berries, pepper and dried flowers, and can develop notes of leather and chocolate over time. All the more reason to let it age a little so that it opens up fully, offering a round texture and a delicate, assertive structure.
