Description
Clos Micot is one of only two Premiers Crus to the east of the D974 between Pommard and Volnay. The soil is quite deep here and the attack is supple and generous, with a mix of red and black cherry fruit. There is just a hint of the iron or iodine notes found in the wines to the south of Pommard. The wetter summer also suited the vineyard, to a degree; this is quite open and succulent. Drink 2026-2035

Critics reviews
Jasper Morris MW 90-92/100
Mostly better yields in Pommard than Volnay. A fuller darker purple. A richer fruit on the palate as well as some darker raspberry on the nose. Some plums. Quite oaky, which might be the specific barrel sampled, but the tannins are refined, good weight and length.Drink 2027-2032Jasper Morris, insideburgundy_com (January 2023)
