Domaine de Montille Pommard 1er Cru 'Les Pezerolles' 2021
Note: from a 1.36 ha holding; 30% whole clusters.
A super-fresh, bright and airy nose freely displays its combination of essence of red berries allied with hints of spice, earth and violet. The vibrant and nicely detailed medium-bodied flavors flash less minerality on the dusty and equally chalky finish. This is very pretty though it could use more depth so a few years of keeping should be helpful. Outstanding. 91 points, drink 2029+, Allen Meadows, Burghound.
The 2021 Pommard Les Pezerolles 1er Cru has one of the most attractive aromatics amongst de Montille's reds with lively black plum and mulberry fruit, damp undergrowth and light tobacco scents. The palate is well balanced with fine tannins, taut and focused with a little more fruit on the finish compared to other cuv?es. Very fine. 91-93 Points. Neal Martin, Vinous.
