Tasting notes
Very generous wood all but overshadows the liqueur-like aromas of black cherries and warm earth. The lavishly rich flavors also possess a beguiling texture thanks to the abundant dry extract that serves to buffer the balanced and lingering finale. This also appears to have the necessary stuffing to integrate the oak treatment in time but be aware that if you're inclined to drink your wines young, the wood isn't subtle.

The 2022 Pommard 1er Cru Clos de la Commaraine Monopole wafts from the glass with aromas of dark berries, spices and licorice framed by toasty new oak. Medium to full-bodied, layered and fleshy, with an elegantly muscular chassis of sweet, powdery tannins and a long, expansive finish, it shows more depth and density than this new winery's debut efforts did.
