Burghound, April 2019, Score: 89-92
This is slightly riper aromatically with its mélange of cassis, dark berry liqueur and pungent earth scents. As is usually the case this is both bigger and richer with evident muscle on the middle weight plus flavors that possess slightly better depth on the equally long if slightly austere and notably more structured finish. This is very Pommard in character and will need at least 15 years to reveal its full potential. Drink 2032+

Decanter, November 2018
Using 15% new wood and 100% stems, this is more immediately appealing than some of Yves Confuron's other wines, but everything is relative. Deep, concentrated and ripe, it has fig and dark berry fruit, sinewy tannins and the power and concentration to age. Drink 2023-2030
Region
Pommard
A long popular appellation, Pommard is yet another exclusive red wine area which produces by far the most structured reds of the Côte de Beaune. It extracts rich body and long ageing potential from the limestone/iron-rich clay soil. Some examples can be markedly rustic, yet as time has passed and winemaking know-how has improved, Pommard's wines are becoming softer and more approachable when young. Its vines cover 317 hectares of which over a third are premier cru vineyards. Several have pronounced following and even one, Les Rugiens, is being pushed to become a grand cru.
