Note di degustazione
A 2005 Pommard Grands Epenots offers a black cherry fruit counterpart to the Epenots’ red cherry. Ripe aromas of distilled fruit intensity lead to an intensely concentrated palate impression of chocolate and caramel-tinged black cherry. So creamy, rich and ripe as to display a liqueur-like disposition, this nevertheless preserves freshness and sheer refreshment. Pure-fruited and with a stony underlying mineral sense, the finish of this Pommard reminds me of a great Charmes Chambertin. With ample but exceptionally refined tannins, this seamless and single-mindedly fruity Pinot is surely built for at least a decade in the cellar, during which time it should acquire further complexity.

Good red-ruby. Perfumed aromas of black and red cherry lifted by flowers. Supple in the mouth but focused and tangy, with lovely verve to the black raspberry and violet flavors. The tannins here are classier and finer-grained than those of the Epenots.
