Description

This 0.44-hectare plot was planted by Sébastien’s great-grandfather in 1934. It sits high on the northern slope of the combe, and so is sunny and south-facing. The vines are almost immediately on limestone and there is more wind given the 300-metre altitude. This energetic Pommard, with crunchy fruit and earthy iron, is a real success this year. Drink 2024-2034.

Critics reviews

Jasper Morris MW 88-91/100
Another ultra-saturated purple-black. Here, on the hillside, the fruit is a little less flamboyant. Black fruit nonetheless. Still very powerful and a little bit dry but the fruit covers the bone structure and the finish is stretched out in a positive way, helped by the whole bunches. These are ripe grapes (14.2% alcohol) but I think the wine can take it.Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy_com (January 2022)
