Reviewed by: Stephen Tanzer

The 2015 Pommard Les Rugiens 1er Cru has a well-defined bouquet of blackberry, raspberry, crushed stone and decayed leaf aromas. The palate is medium-bodied and well-structured, possibly with some stem addition lending freshness and tertiary/mulch-like notes toward the smudged finish. The wine seems to deteriorate in the glass from an initial positive showing. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.
