Known for its power and structure, the 'Grand Clos Des Épenots' exemplifies the robust yet refined nature of Pommard. It's full-bodied, with firm yet well-integrated tannins and balanced acidity. The fruit flavours are rich and concentrated, accompanied by a mineral undertone.
Enjoy it now, especially with some decanting to allow the wine to open up, and it will continue to develop and gain complexity with further aging.
What the critics say:
"This is also markedly ripe yet not quite as ripe as the Fremiers with its array of both red and dark currant, black cherry, tobacco and warm earth aromas that are trimmed in noticeable wood. There is fine detail and reasonably good punch to the lush and very round medium-bodied flavors that also display a hint of mocha. This too is a big and overtly powerful Pommard yet it avoids being top heavy. Note that I would strongly suggest that this not even be considered before it has at least 10 years of bottle age. 'Outstanding'"
"Really delicious rhubarb, cranberry and redcurrant fruit – lots to enjoy here already, really expressive and satisfying. Plenty of tannin and acid too – bold and stylised, but successfully so."
