Violets, blackberry, forest floor, still some grippy tannin. This is old school and fairly extracted, but drinking well 👍

not a big Gaunoux fan for these older wines but this Pommard was surprisingly elegant and even refined, not at all rustic or backward. Ruby red and throwing no sediment, it’s pretty in the glass. It’s more red fruited than dark, nicely balanced, and a good wine. Tannins are resolved, good acidity that focuses the wine. I wouldn’t rush out to get more but it’s a nice Friday quaff. Nothing special.
