Tasting profile
Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, high acidity, dry
A Pommard Premier Cru from Les Chaponnières, made by Jean-Jacques Girard of Savigny-lès-Beaune. Chaponnières lies on the Beaune side of Pommard and gives a firmly built Pinot Noir: black cherry, raspberry and plum, with earthy, spicy notes and a sturdier tannin than most Côte de Beaune reds. It is tight when young and opens up after five or more years in the cellar.
