DOMAINE DE COURCEL

Pommard 1er cru Grand Clos des Epenots 2022

Liqueur-like aromas of black cherry, plum, kirsch and cassis display a broad array of floral top notes. The impressively scaled large-bodied flavors are incredibly concentrated as the dry extract imparts a sappy texture and almost renders the very firm tannic spine invisible on the dusty, austere and compact finale. This is also old school and ultra-serious so I repeat the advice for the Fremiers, e.g., don’t buy this without the intent to cellar it over the longer-term.

À propos de Burghound.com

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
