The 2012 Pommard 1er Cru Fremiers is 100% whole cluster fruit and the soil here is similar to the Volnay Chevret. It has a more ebullient, vivacious bouquet than the Chaponnieres with exotic touches of kirsch and creme de cassis interlacing the red and black fruit profile. The palate is sensual and rounded on the entry, although those stems lend this Pommard deceptive structure on the “solid” finish. There is a touch of spice at the tip of the tongue lingering long after the wine has departed. Excellent – but give it several years to show what it can do. -Wine Advocate
(100% vendange entier; Rossignol made only two barrels in 2012, vs. a normal six, as the yield was just 12 hectoliters per hectare): Deep red-ruby. Musky, wild aromas of black fruits, smoke and espresso. Then fat, rich and densely packed, showing wonderfully rich, deep black raspberry fruit with virtually no greenness in spite of the whole-cluster fermentation. This sappy, dense, building wine finishes with terrific length and lift.
