The 2010 Pommard Pezerolles bursts onto the palate with an exciting array of red berries, orange peel, spices and pomegranate. There is an exotic quality to the Pommard that is striking. Layers of flavor build to a generous, caressing finish. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2030. Yields were down 40% in 2010 at Lafarge. According to Frederic Lafarge, a superb September saved a year marked by damp, cold weather during the flowering and later throughout the summer. On the positive side, the low yields per plant allowed the grapes to achieve full phenolic ripeness. The 2010s were racked in mid-August 2011 and were aging on their fine lees when I tasted them from barrel in November 2011. As pretty as the 2010s are, today I have a slight preference for the 2009s. That said, the 2010s are terrific, and many of the wines are at or near the top of their respective peer groups.

Good medium red. High-pitched aromas of black cherry, minerals and licorice. Precise and pure, with a juicy quality to the blackberry and violet flavors. Can't quite match the last couple of samples for pliancy, but this is quite fine for Pommard, and a big success for this cuvee here. Finishes with dusty tannins, slowly building length and noteworthy verve.
