2016 Pommard Les Epenots

The 2016 Pommard 1er Cru Les Epenots unfurls in the glass with aromas of dark cherries, cassis, loamy soil, woodsmoke and a subtle hint of dried herbs. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with bright acids and youthfully chewy tannins that assert themselves on the finish. This is a nicely balanced Epenots that will demand a bit of bottle age.
