Pommard Les Bertins 1er Cru, Chantal Lescure - 2020

Provenance: Burgundy
Appellation: Pommard
Domain: Chantal Lescure
Grape variety(ies): Pinot noir
On-call time: 20 years
Alcohol degree: 14.2%
Classement: Premier Cru

The terroir of Les Bertins is little known in Pommard, and this is a form of injustice because it is ideally placed on the hillside of the Premier Crus, in the continuation of Volnay and Fremiets. Here, therefore, there is no rusticity or exaggerated tannicity, but rather a superb pinot with aromas of ripe red fruits and incense, dense but smooth, full of energy, and built for a very good ageing.
