Tasting notes
(these 2015s were bottled in September of this year): Healthy ruby-red. Quite sun-drenched on first sniff, with raspberry and spice aromas coming across as more expressive than the '16. Sappy, spicy, highly concentrated flavors of red and purple fruits and flowers are already surprisingly supple, with an element of minerality contributing to the impression of vivacity. The plush, building tannins saturate the entire mouth. Seriously concentrated and alive. Yves Confuron told me that these wines are pumped only once, when they are assembled in tank prior to bottling.

Cask sample. Plummy, ripe fruit with a strong liquorice and blackcurrant character. The dark side of Pinot Noir. Lots of charming perfume too, which gives a welcome lift on the finish. This makes the best of the ripeness of 2015. (RH)
Medium ruby-red. Brooding aromas of dark raspberry and fruity dark chocolate suggest a dense wine. Fine-grained, deep and strong, displaying lovely minerality and violet lift and no rusticity. This very dense but juicy Pommard wine finishes with chocolatey tannins and excellent length. One really sees the warm vintage here.
