Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens Domaine Y. Clerget 2023 (750ML)

91-94 Points, Allen Meadows, Burghound: "A cool, elegant and perfumed nose speaks of red berries, spice, exotic tea and an interesting hint of dried orange peel. The racy, detailed and equally intensely mineral-driven flavors display impressive power and first-class length on the youthfully austere, balanced and dusty finale. Excellent development potential. (Drink starting 2035)" 04/25

91-93 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous: "The 2023 Pommard Les Rugiens 1er Cru includes 30% whole bunch with 20% new oak. This has an intense bouquet, actually quite Volnay in style with blood orange infusing the black cherry and raspberry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with a delicately poised entry and fine tannins. Certainly a more elegantly styled Pommard, this has a refined, silky-smooth finish and will probably drink earlier than Clerget's Volnays. (Drink between 2027-2043)" 01/25
