2023 Marthe Henry Boillot Les Vignots Pommard, Cote de Beaune, France
$135.00
From a plot at the top of the Pommard hillside. Whole bunch harvest and vinification in tank. Grapes see a pump over or two per day during the 15 days of vatting and three light punch downs by foot on the very last day of maceration before pressing. Pressing is very gentle and without re-drying to avoid extracting any plant material. Aged un-racked in barrels for 18 months. Bottled after a light filtration in the following month.
Tasting Note A tremendous effort on village Pommard. Velvety and round with typically pronounced dark fruit flavours and ripe tannins. The palate is silky and deep, lifted by mouthwatering acidity and a marked mineral imprint on the finish. Definitely one for the cellar, keep up to 15 years.
