A pinot noir with aromas of blackberry, blueberry, pepper, with a solid but fine structure. The nose offers a beautiful aromatic bouquet marked by aromas of small black fruits (blackberry, blueberry) and spices. The palate is dense, complex, mixing notes of black fruits and silky tannins. It is considered as the most elegant of the Pommard appellation.
