William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Exhibiting generous aromas of cherries, espresso roast, dark chocolate and baking spices, the 2018 Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens is medium to full-bodied, deep and elegantly muscular, with a broad-shouldered chassis of powdery tannin, lively acids and a nicely defined finish. This has turned out very well, though it will require patience.

The 2018 Pommard Les Rugiens 1er Cru has an expressive and well-defined bouquet with lifted floral scents, touches of chalk infusing the mixture of red/black fruit, slightly irony with time. The palate is medium-bodied with a structured entry. Quite strict and linear, this is your archetypal Pommard with an almost briny finish. Excellent.
This is one of the most collectible Burgundy producers in the entire region. Not to mention of their best wines. If you are a collector of Burgundy, this is a must have in the cellar!
