Note di degustazione
An overtly sauvage nose features game-inflected aromas of dark berries, plum, floral and earth nuances that also exhibit a hint of smoke. Somewhat unusually, this is also quite finely detailed and while this is openly powerful, it's not at all rustic or tough though it is exceptionally tight and backward at present on the impeccably well-balanced finish. This is even more restrained than the Rugiens and like its stable mate, it's pointless to acquire this without the express intension of forgetting it in your cellar. That said, this offers fantastic upside potential to those who have the patience.

Moderately saturated medium red. Sappy aromas of medicinal cherry, herbs, cola, spices and earth. A bit rustic in the mouth, with good texture and moderate lift to its red fruit, spice and earth flavors. It was difficult tasting these 2009s alongside 2010s from other estates.
Informazioni sul produttore
Domaine Michel Gaunoux is today run by Michel’s grandchildren, Anne and Alexandre, with a guiding hand from their mother. Everything here is extremely traditional, and the family has been quietly making rich, complex and age-worthy Pommard and Corton for over half a century.
