A biodynamic Pommard from Domaine Derain's Les Petit Noizons lieu-dit — deep ruby with garnet, structured yet graceful, with black cherry, redcurrant, warm spice, and earthy minerals, showing Pommard's power through Derain's lens of elegance and finesse.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby with garnet reflections. Black cherry, redcurrant, warm spice, and earthy mineral notes on the nose. Structured yet graceful on the palate with dark berry fruit, polished tannins, and a persistent, savoury finish. Pommard is Burgundy's most powerful village appellation — Derain's biodynamic approach finds the elegance inside that power, producing a wine that is concentrated but never heavy.
