Product notes

The Pommard vineyard is located between Beaune in the North and Volnay in the South. On a full slope, in the middle of its vineyard, it faces East or South/East. The commune of Pommard only produces red wines. There is no Grand Cru. The soil is predominantly clay-limestone.

Production notes

Aging lasts around 18 months in barrels from our cooperage, around a third of which are new.
