2021, Domaine A. -F. Gros, POMMARD, 1er Cru, 'Les Pezerolles', MonopoleThe 2021 Pommard Les Pezerolles 1er Cru contains 50% whole bunches this year. Dark berry fruit, briary and light sous bois scents unfold on the nose quintessentially Pommard. The palate is medium bodied with crunchy dark berry fruit, orange rind, bitter cherry and a touch of pain d'pices towards the finish. Lots of energy here this Pommard looks destined to give 10 15 years of drinking pleasure. Very fine. 90 92 Neal Martin, Vinous.
