Pommard, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
Wow. So floral. Milk chocolate covered cherries. Massive minerality. Deep and sinewy. Palate is so dense and so complex. Juicy and closed and has the most amazing fruit. Huge acid and a clipped finish. Out of balance but the guts are all there. This is a revisit. Terrific inner mouth aromas. Big tannins. Needs time. Graceful. After 7 hours this is insane. Nose is mossy and stoney. Deep. Wild. Feral. Palate is so supple, so elegant and has the most stunning late breaking tannins. Stoney as Pommard is but my goodness what stunning finesse. 9.6 to 9.8. Awesome concentration and depth. Really deep. My goodness that nose on day 2. Unreal depth. Moss. Mineral. Stones. Wild mint. Sweet black cherry. So awesome. Perfect balance and big Pommard tannins but so rustic. So elite. Weightless yet has so much weight.

Nose: deep dense cherry. A hint of smoke. Pink rose perfume as this opens.
Palate: dense cherries. Classic Brisset precision. Laser like balancing acidity. Almost savory as it opens. Spectacularly delicious but so well made.
