Pommard Les Épenots 1er Cru 2017, Nicolas Rossignol
A monumental red for charisma, power, and stylistic rigor. The olfactory profile alternates crisp black fruits with mineral and earthy notes of extreme refinement. On the palate, it is dense, savory, and characterized by a masterful balance between the strength of the terroir and the verticality of the sip. A demonstration of style that represents the pinnacle of Pommard Pinot Noir.
Pommard Les Épenots 1er Cru 2017, Nicolas Rossignol
The Pommard 1er Cru "Les Épenots" 2017 by Nicolas Rossignol is a monumental work, an interpretation that elevates the power of Pommard to an almost moving finesse. Rossignol, a master at capturing the essence of the soil without force, draws from this Cru (often considered the "Grand Cru" in waiting of Pommard) an overwhelming complexity. The 2017 shines for its expressive immediacy combined with an iron structure in a velvet glove. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of wild blackberry, fresh plum, and red rose petals blend with deep hints of fine spices, blond tobacco, scorched earth, and a mineral streak evoking iron and chalk. On the palate, it is sumptuous and muscular; the entry is broad, dominated by a dense yet extremely agile body, with noble and tight tannins that extend to a savory, endless finish characterized by aristocratic balsamic freshness.
