In a glorious place. So elegant. More to come. Wet earth and deep red cherries on the nose on a background slab of minerals. Complex spice as well. Palate is so juicy and generous. Luscious, deep fruit with suave, velvety tannins and unreal density without weight. Such a mineral finish. After 16 hours open it’s so juicy, silky and downright decadent. 19 has amazing fruit. — 7 days ago

Gorgeous nose that is primary and grapey with some bright mid to late season cherry and a hint of reduction that will blow off. Now some raspberry sweet cake and a hint of cocoa add alluring complexity. Reduction already blowing off. But still needs hours to become fully aromatically expressive. Palate is so clean, so juicy and so precise with crystalline fruit that just crackles and is ripe. Wow. This is amazing. I think I sold for $42. Unreal finish and super cleansing minerality. Lovely amplitude in the mid palate and just thrilling fruit. With air the fruit is sweetening up and it has terrific inner mouth aromas and a confectionary quality on the palate when you swish. Amazing wine. Almost 9.5. — 5 months ago

Nice but not overly remarkable. Don’t have a ton of experience with Pommard. This is quite fleshy and even slightly rustic perhaps. The tannins are certainly quite present. Not giving as much aromatically as one might hope. Still very well balanced and a nice finish. — a year ago

First time since barrel in summer of 23 and it blew me away then. Gorgeous and pointed cherries on the nose, some minerals, bittersweet cocoa, spice, metal shavings and more. Gorgeous but will need some time to become more aromatic. Palate is a little discombobulated on the PNP but it’s all there. Grippy, dramatic fruit, amazing length and fruit density, gorgeous purity and grandiose minerality. It needs to come together though. It will. Really coming into its own with minimal air as that finesse is something else. And so so juicy. So fresh and energetic and what amazing fruit cling!! With air this comes alive with just exquisitely perfumed fruit. Perfect balance. Really great. — 4 months ago
