"Bright medium red. Lovely floral perfume lifts the crunchy fruit aromas of cherry, strawberry and raspberry. A complex vin de terroir, not particularly fat or sweet but with lovely juicy definition and intensity to the complex flavors of redcurrant, minerals, spices, dried rose, earth and celery seed. The fine-grained tannins reach the incisors. Light on its feet considering that production was a freakishly low five hectoliters per hectare due to the hailstorm."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Pommard is a village AOC in Burgundy's Cote de Beaune with noted Premier Crus, producing dark, powerful and tannic Pinot Noir reds of firm structure and earthy depth built for aging.
2013 in Burgundy was a difficult, cool and hail-hit year with a late harvest and small crop; the wines are fresh, lean and classically styled, with bright acidity and firm structure, especially the reds.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
