2006 Domaine Courcel Pommard Epenots Premier Cru

(92 Points) This is very Pommard in character with a pungently earthy nose featuring underbrush, cassis, blueberry and raspberry aromas that are perhaps not quite as ripe as those of the Fremiers precede rich, full and mildly rustic big-bodied flavors of both muscle and power that coat the mouth on the long finish. There is a lot of dry extract here and the significant tannins are completely buffered. This is a serious Epenots built to age. Tasted: Apr 01, 2009 Drink: 2016+ Burghound Issue 34
