2015 Domaine Joseph Voillot Pommard Les Epenots 1er Cru

The 2015 Pommard 1er Cru les Epenots is subtler and covets its secrets more than the Pommard les Pezerolles from barrel. Nuanced and unapologetically inward-looking at first, it begins to unfold with just a few swirls of the glass and eventually blossoms. It's just toying with you. The palate is sweet on the entry, a little more candied and generous than the Pezerolles, perhaps the vintage speaking more than the terroir at the moment. But I appreciate the light-hearted joie-de-vivre of this Pommard.
