Tasting notes
Full bottle 1,324 g. Label is so distressed from having been in my leaky Spiral Cellar that I can't read the alcohol level. Dark ruby-garnet with a shaded rim. Leafy compost nose. And very sweet and resolved on the palate. I think we're drinking it on the right day! Tannins very well receded. And there's the real sweetness for which burgundy is renowned with a fresh, satisfying finish. (JR)

Very rich, scented and gorgeous on the nose. Quite stern underneath. Very firm and very Pommard with a little green note. Definitely for the long term. (JR)
(from vines more than 70 years of age, located both at the rocky top and richer bottom of the slope) Bright ruby-red. Wild red and black fruits complicated by a mineral nuance. Sweet, lush and creamy in the mouth, with the wine's fatness coming as a surprise after the nose. Plenty of tannins here but the tannins are sweet and supple.
