FEATURES
🏰 Domaine Chantal Lescure's Pommard Les Vaumuriens 2009 is a remarkable terroir-driven Pinot Noir from a highly esteemed plot in Pommard, showcasing elegance, mineral tension, and fresh red fruit balanced with a silky texture. The 2009 Burgundy vintage was exceptionally good, producing rich, opulent wines with good tannin levels, though some wines lacked acidity. The reds are generally plump and attractive, made for drinking.
🍷 Expect notes of black cherry, darker berry fruit, and an earthy, limestone-leaning accent with a lift of citrus peel. The palate is dry and structured, with firm tannins, steady acidity, and a long, savory finish. Other tasting notes include red berries, blackcurrant, tea, and a juicy aftertaste. Some older reviews mention a barnyard nose, cassis, and red fruit, indicating a wine that is alive and well-structured.
🍴 This wine is an excellent companion for classic dishes like Boeuf Bourguignon, roasted duck breast, steak frites, lamb shoulder, porcini pasta, Parmigiano-Reggiano, jamón ibérico, or miso-glazed eggplant.
🥂 Perfect for a classic French dinner, a cozy evening by the fireplace, or a gathering of Burgundy lovers. It is currently in its drinking window but still possesses the structure to age further.
