Louis Latour Pommard 2020

$59.99
Pommard is for many, the most familiar Burgundy appellation. The village itself lies approximately four kilometres south of Beaune, and the total appellation is fairly extensive, covering 300 hectares, flanking a narrow valley which leads back into the Côte d'Or hinterland. The wines of Pommard are quite different from those of the neighbouring villages. They tend to be deeper and more concentrated than Beaune or Volnay wines and have a sumptuous perfume and bite without being too tannic. This wine requires a number of years to reveal itself.

A balanced expression with savory aromas of picked mushroom, wild thyme come to the forefront followed by a layer of juicy blackberry. Round tannins provide texture and cling onto notes of red cherry skin, a touch of cassis, black pepper corn and tossed earth which persist through its delicate black tea leaf finish.
