Never liked this producer. This wine has not changed my mind. 2010 was a good vintage but this has a poor flavor profile.

Way too young, which is driving the lower rating. Fresh red berries and mushroom on the nose. Earthy and spicy mineral finish - still too young.

Pretty delicious. Earthy, slight spicy tobacco and violets. Black fruit and good acid

2017 vintage. Last tasted 9.29.25 (9.2). Decanted and tasted after 45 minutes and 1.5 hours. Solid and starting to improve throughout the experience. Was medium-medium heavy body but starting to thin out a little and closer to dead-center medium currently. Likely won't get the chance but feel like this score will creep up to 9.3 in the next 3-4 years. Not a huge jump but, given the $43.27 bottle cost/ resto price paid, fairly decent value for VV Pommard. 1.30.26.

Beautiful expression of Pinot from Pommard lovely nose… rose petal, light touch of bramble, strawberry. Fantastic acid, great for braised short rib for Christmas , cherry and cranberry. Great structure. Can definitely age longer in the bottle. 13% not sure where all the hate is coming from, this is a great bottle.
