Note di degustazione
Medium red, a bit less saturated than the Volnay Caillerets and Chevrets. Sexy aromas of raspberry, smoke, dried rose and rust, with a hint of peppery herbs that carries onto the palate. Red fruit and spice flavors show little in the way of easy sweetness, owing to the wine's saline character and firm underlying structure. Turned increasingly juicy with air, opening out nicely on the back end. This needs time in bottle but already reveals plenty of personality.

(a combination of Haut and Bas, the top of the cru providing fresher fruit and the bottom riper, according to Guillaume Boillot; aged in 50% new oak): Good bright red. ure but reticent aromas of redcurrant, rust and minerals; conveys a distinct iron character. Then creamy and seamless in the mid-palate but with a decidedly elegant delicacy. Finishes savory and long, with a serious spine of peppery tannins calling for patience.
The 2013 Pommard 1er Cru les Rugiens, which comes from two parcels located in Rugiens Haut and Rugiens Bas, has a perfumed, quite floral bouquet that is harmonious and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, good acidity here, with a fresh and almost citric finish. Nicely structured with fine tannins, this carries the 50% new oak well and should give 10-15 years of pleasure.
