Pommard Rugiens 1er Cru 2016

The 2016 Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens, located in the lieu-dit of Rugiens-Dessus, provides more focus and delineation than the Volnay Caillerets, offering plenty of detailed black cherry, raspberry and boysenberry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fresh and fine tannin, crisp acidity, a little ferrous toward the finish but long in the mouth. This is very well crafted and should age well for over a decade.

Score: 90 - 92
