Pommard 1er Cru - Rugiens 2011
aoc

Cépage Pinot Noir
Sol clay and limestone with a high iron content
Elevage in barrels (20% in a new oak)

Description

There must have been vines planted here for a long time. More than 2,000 years ago, the Gauls selected and propagated the Pinot Noir grape in this location. A temple dedicated to Pomona, the Celtic goddess, may be at the origin of the name.
The word "Rugiens" is a derivative of "rouge" (red) and it describes the colour of the soil.

Tasting

"Pommard Premier Cru Rugiens is rich and powerful with a superb structure. Tannin lends some firmness to the structure, made somewhat softer by a harmonious velvety texture. Aromas remiscent of red and black fruit mingle with mineral notes due to iron contained in the soil. A long and flavourful aftertaste".  

Tasting note by Véronique Boss-Drouhin

Vintage

The reds display a bright ruby-red colour and reveal aromas of black fruit and spices above silky tannins. 2011 wines are well-balanced.
