Description
Often seen as a masculine full bodied wine, the image driven by the name of Pommard often hides more subtleness and sensitivity than expected. Terroir, vinification method, ageing have a
deep influence on the character of the wine.
Color
Ruby red colored, its purple hint recalls what Victor Hugo called the "fight between night and day".
Grape Varieties
Aroma
It shows aromas of blackberry, blueberry, gooseberry or cherry stone. A wild evolution towards animal notes often appears when ageing.
Taste
With time flavours of leather, chocolate even peppery notes start developing. To enjoy young with expressive and flavorsome food and if connoisseurs are eager to let it age carefully, the delicacy of the Pinot Noir will show all its complexity with tannins that will soften with time.

3 to 12 years
