Tasting notes
The 2014 Pommard 1er Cru Les Grands Epenots has a languid, raspberry and crushed strawberry bouquet with tangible mineralité coming through. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, well -judged acidity, very harmonious and pure towards the long Volnay-like finish. This is a wonderful Pommard that already seems so animated and tensile - certainly one to look out for once in bottle.

Palish medium red. Delicate, high-pitched aromas of dried rose, cinnamon and smoke convey a limestone pungency. The palate offers a lovely combination of sucrosité and saline minerality, with complicating notes of crushed stone, cappuccino and milk chocolate. Shows more soil character than simple primary fruit. Finishes fine-grained, pure and long, spreading out to saturate the palate without leaving any impression of weight.
