Ratings: Gault Millau 16/20, RVF 15.5/20
“This Pommard showcases the Pinot Noir’s expression of lingonberry, black plum, and spices. The texture on the palate is powerful without being excessive, with the finesse of Pinot Noir coming through. ” (The Guide to the Best Wines of France 2012 – Gault Millau)

About the estate:
An historic estate, first mentioned in the 18th century, now covering 24 hectares. At the helm are Roger Belland, who took over in 1981; his daughter Julie, who joined in 2003 and oversees winemaking; and their new partner, Martin Boyer. No certified organic production here, but sustainable and carefully managed viticulture (full vineyard cover cropping, no herbicides), and wines of great consistency.
