| Description: | Wine Advocate 94-96 Points - "The 2016 Pommard 1er Cru Les Epenots is a blend two vineyards, one 45 years old and the other 110 years old (the source of massale selection from 2017), which Nicolas describes as his grand cru. Living up to that claim, it sports a deliriously elegant bouquet with detailed blackcurrant, boysenberry and briary scents infused with minerals. The palate is very silky on the entry, the acidity well judged and with superb density without detracting from precision and poised. It leaves a chalky residue in the mouth and a sappiness that leaves you wanting more. This is an outstanding wine from Nicolas Rossignol.". Decanter 94 Points - "From the Petits Epnots, this superb wine is the king of the Rossignol cellar in 2016. A brooding bouquet of rich red and black fruit, spice, rich soil and savoury bass notes is the prelude to a multidimensional, layered wine with incredible vibrancy and depth at the core. Only two barrels were produced, with 50% whole cluster fruit. The concentration and intensity of this wine evoke great post-war Pommard." |
