Pommard Pinot Noir

Another lights out Buffet offering.

Big, classic Pommard nose with stones, black cherries, darker red cherries, some hints of fed licorice and some black plums. So expressive and aromatic. Floral and expansive. Buffet makes some of the best Volnay/Pommard village wines in all of the Cote de Beaune. Stunning expansiveness once the nose gets going. Palate is juicy, stoney and plummy initially with that classic 2020 Buffet depth of fruit. Structured and very stoney and very Pommard with unreal clarity and depth. This is 9.3++++ for now. Let’s see what air brings.

9.3 to 9.4 with air. Nose is so deep and so stoney. Palate is juicy, compact and super clean. Great concentration and explosive fruit. Opulent texture and terrific ripe tannins. Phenomenal.

Big, brawny, stoney and wonderfully aromatic nose. So Pommard. Mid to late season cherries. Fresh wood shavings. Stony minerality. So deep. Love that mix of 60% intense Pommard minerality and 40% gorgeous clear cherry fruit. Palate is divine. Gorgeous sweet fruit and glorious purity. Deep and wonderful. This is stuffed. Balanced and pure. Brawny yet elegant. Unreal length. The sun really shined on Pommard in 2019. Stunningly candied after 15 minutes on the nose. Confectionery. Just a stunning village wine. What a value! So fresh, so much energy and just stacked. But so elegant. This is one of the best value Village Pommards I’ve ever had.

Great young pommard. Better than some of the other ratings suggest, but may not be a modern-day crowd pleaser.

Fruity, fresh, delicious, if fresh and light burgundy - probably will evolve over a couple more years!
