Note di degustazione
The 2015 Pommard Clos des Epenots 1er Cru has an attractive, Volnay-like bouquet that offers generous, slightly plush red fruit and some high-quality if vanilla-y new oak. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannin, very well judged acidity, good energy and a lovely salinity streaming through on the finish. Excellent. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

The 2015 Pommard 1er Cru Clos des Epenots comes from the 3.2-hectares of vineyard, since separated into two cuvées according to vine age and matured in 35% new oak. It has a perfumed, quite floral bouquet with blackberry, black plum, quite confit-like with fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, well-integrated oak, well balanced with a dense, slightly sinewy, sappy finish that suggests it will require 3-4 years in bottle to mellow. The substance here suggests that it should age with style, although for a Pommard it does seem lithe and approachable.
