James Suckling Review
Rated 93
The smoky and herbal nose pulls you into this rather firm and muscular Pommard that reminds me of the wines from this appellation during the 1990s. However, all of this is wrapped in a cloak of black-cherry fruit. So much depth, but still slightly grainy at the finish. From a vineyard called Les Cras below the 1er Cru Rugiens. The first picking of the 2020 harvest, then 50% whole-cluster fermentation. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.
