Goedhuis, December 2023
From the lower slopes of Pommard, heading towards Beaune, part of the iron-rich soils of this vineyard were planted in 1900, creating an extremely intense and concentrated wine. Such was the quality of the fruit from these old vines in 2022, that Nicolas decided to do 100% whole bunch vinification. A perfume of dark cherry and wild fruits of the forest. The focus is on richness and sweetly spiced flavours, plump, with a fabulous volume which lingers for a very rewarding length of time on the finish. Lovely!
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.
