Domaine Lucien Boillot et Fils
Les Croix Noires Pommard 1er Cru Pinot Noir
Wow! This is still quite youthful on the palate. Acidity is present and balancing. Nose is the only thing that belies its age.

Nov 28th, 2014Usually not a fan of Pommard, I wagered 2015 would yield more round fruit and counter the typical astringency. A good bet.

Showing it’s age in a very good way. Just a splash of cedar and I mean just a splash. Fabulous right now and thanks again to my bud @Todd Abrams. Nice picks my brother.
