Some of them encircled by 17 hoops of white birch which is one of its kind in the entire Burgundy region.
Blend: 100% Pinot Noir
AOC: Pommard
Tasting Notes:Its aromas are redolent of blackberry, bilberry, or gooseberry, cherry pit and ripe plum. It needs to be given time to open up to its fullest extent and to display its mouth-filling texture.
At full maturity, it tends towards chocolate and pepper. It has firm but delicate structure and chewy tannins which by then will be properly smoothed down.
