Crafted from vines nestled in the prestigious Petits Epenots vineyard, this wine is a true standout, seamlessly blending flamboyance with undeniable charm. Bursting with flavors of wild berry, blackberry, and crisp apple, it offers a multi-dimensional sensory experience. Initially captivating with its aromatic allure and subtle charm, the wine gradually unfolds to reveal deeper layers of complexity and richness on the palate. Despite its inherent power, it maintains an exquisite finesse, showcasing intricate layers of spice and nutmeg that linger gracefully on the finish. Truly outstanding.

Clos des Epeneaux is one of Pommard's most highly regarded Premier Cru vineyards, located at the base of the Côte d'Or escarpment in the Côte de Beaune region of Burgundy. It is a walled vineyard, nestled between the Grands Epenots and Petits Epenots climats, and like its neighbours, it is planted entirely to Pinot Noir. Clos des Epeneaux Premier Cru wines are full-bodied and complex with elegant, earthy characters and the ability to age for many years. The three vineyards make up the larger Epenots lieu-dit, and wines from all three vineyards can be labelled under that name.
