Note di degustazione
Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens has quite a complex bouquet with fine, edgy brambly red fruit: a hint of juniper berries and quince. It coalesces nicely in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with svelte tannins, supple texture and a harmonious, assured finish with plenty of juicy red berry fruit laced with white pepper and bay leaf. There is certainly a lot going on in this wine and it should evolve nicely over the next decade.

(tasted from barrel; from the middle of Rugiens du Haut; finished its malolactic fermentation late, in August): Bright dark red. Black cherry, iron and mocha on the nose. Vibrant and pure but youthfully tight, even a bit tough today, but with a fine-grained texture and lovely inner-mouth perfume and lift to its cherry and spice flavors. No easy sweetness here but boasts very good medicinal reserve. Finishes savory, aromatic and long, with gripping tannins and a strong backbone for aging.
