2016 Pommard, La Levrière, Trés Vieilles Vignes, Domaine Dugat-Py, Burgundy

Vinified with 50% whole cluster.

A fresh, cool, and airy mix is composed of perfumed aromas of rose petals, violet, red currant, and a background hint of earth. There is a first-rate intensity to the mineral-driven and muscular medium-weight flavours that exhibit terrific persistence on the firm and moderately rustic finish. Pommard villages wines rarely get much better than this, though it is necessary to have extended patience.

Drink from 2028 onward
