Produced from 2 parcels representing 1.70 ha of Pinot Noir each located in the "Les Grands Epenots " and "Les Petits Epenots". The vines of the "Grands Epenots" are 28 years old and 55 years old for the "Petits Epenots", they produce an average yield of 45 hl/ha. Following the sorting the grapes are destemmed and a pre-fermentation skin maceration for 3 to 5 days at 8°C will be carried out. Cement vats are used for the fermentations that will last for 18 to 20 days at 27°C - 29°C. The ageing in french oak barrels will last 16 to 18 months with 30% - 40% of new oak and 60% - 70% are 1 to 4 years old.

"There is enough wood to notice on the big-bodied flavors that possess fine concentration and exceptionally good richness as there is so much extract that this is almost chewy. This is a powerful example with excellent size, weight and punch, all wrapped in a lingering finish where the only nit is a trace of warmth. If you have the discipline to wait for this to mature it should be outstanding in time" - Outstanding - Sweet Spot - Burghound

"A blend of Les Grands and Les Petits Epenots lieux-dits, the 2019 Pommard Les Epenots 1er Cru is made with 35% whole bunches ad 50% new French oak. It has a fragrant and quite floral bouquet, wilted rose petals intertwined with red berry fruit, touches of sage in the background, later damp loam. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a fine bead of acidity, beautifully balanced with the greatest precision on the finish. Excellent" - 93-95 - Neal Martin - Vinous
