Tasting Notes

Here the equally ripe and fresh nose is actually quite similar to that of the Perrières though the earthy component is even more prominent. I very much like the seductive texture of the concentrated flavors that also brim with dry extract while displaying solid depth and persistence on the mildly rustic and austere finale. This is very Pommard in basic character and will require at least a few years of bottle age first.
