Pommard, 1er Cru, Rugiens
Red wine

Domaine Fernand et Laurent Pillot, Pommard 1er Cru, Rugiens 2019

RRP TBA

2019 is a lovely vintage for Pommard, and this strikes the palate with vigour and concentration. Svelte muscularity and sapid freshness – full but tight. Smooth graphite, followed by slightly sooty aromatics on the lithe finish.
