Marked by the fullness of its twenty-six years, the 2000 vintage brings to this Pommard 1er Cru Clos des Epeneaux from Domaine des Comtes Armand an admirably melted texture and a great serenity of body. The wine opens with a subtle bouquet of fresh blackberry and fine licorice, enhanced by a mineral touch that preserves all the freshness of this exceptional terroir.

Vinous Tasting Note

The 2000 Pommard 1er Cru Clos des Epéneaux has a well defined bouquet with raspberry, crushed strawberry, undergrowth and bay leaf scents. I appreciate the discreet manner in which it gains intensity with aeration, repaying those with the nous to decant this wine. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin: a well proportioned Clos des Epéneaux with a dash of spice enlivening the finish. Returning to the 2001, there is a completeness to the 2000, I find that it has matured better. Tasted at Sarah Marsh’s 2000 and 2001 horizontal tasting.
