Description
Including 50% whole bunch and new oak, the 2020 Pommard Les Epenots 1er Cru was a little reduced on the nose, but it opened with aeration to reveal intense red fruit, cassis and a touch of violet, though the new oak will need time to assimilate. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannins, refined and poised, the most complex and noble of Parent's Pommards with a long and silky finish. Superb.
