The vineyards of Pommard have always been very coveted throughout the centuries, by either princes or by religious orders. "Les Fremiers" is not exception to this rule. In the XIV century, this vineyard was the property of Maizière Abbey. This locality is named "Fremyer" which means in old French, firm and solid... Indeed, the strength of this wine is to combine elegance and firmness. All the power of its terroir expresses itself, wrapped in very fine tannins. A substantial 1.65 hectare holding with 40+ year old vines planted on a layer of clay and limestone soil, the source of the power of Pommard. It is also mixed with pebbles of rock debris that provide all the elegance and delicacy of the 1st Crus.
A charming and energetic Pommard. Upright rather green peppercorn and scented aroma. Light spring on the palate with crunchy red cherry freshness. Across the palate it becomes supple and smooth and rounded with a touch of almond bitterness to finish. From the Volnay side of the Pommard with some Volnay character. From 2023-27.
Light red color, ruby glints. Vanilla nose, smoked, exotic, almond notes, ripe red fruits. Full mouth, mellow, with fruity and forest nuances. The wood and tannins are play a supporting role. Superb.
