Comte Armand : Pommard 1er cru "Clos des Epeneaux" Monopole 2017

Wine Advocate-Parker :
The 2017 Pommard 1er Cru Clos des Epeneaux wafts from the glass with aromas of plums, wild berries, warm spices, orange rind and dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and nicely integrated, with good depth and concentration, succulent acids and an elegant sense of completeness. I tasted both an old-vine component, a younger-vine component and a representative blend of the two, the latter being finer than merely the sum of the parts. It's a classy Clos des Epeneaux in the making and one that will attain its plenitude before the 2016 and 2015 renditions.
