Antoine Jobard Epenots Pommard Premier Cru, France 2022
Here too there is just enough reduction present to push the underlying fruit to the background. By contrast, there is excellent verve and freshness to the solidly voluminous medium-bodied flavors that possess slightly better mid-palate density while delivering good power and length on the more structured finale. This is also very good and a wine that should drink well after only 5-ish or so years of keeping.

The 2022 Pommard Epenots 1er Cru easily has the richest, most opulent bouquet with violet-tinged red fruit, quite vivacious in style, a Pommard determined to seduce. The palate is medium-bodied and perhaps more… contained than the aromatics. But plenty of black plum fruit, baking powder and cracked black pepper remain, exerting gentle grip on the nish. Quite robust, but it will age well in bottle.
