Touch of cooked tomato – feels like a cool-vintage nose

and an absolute must

the red fruits are crisp and bright and while they pop

its sophistication rippling with nuance rather than sheer vulgar power

citrus rind and anise whiffs

Louis Boillot, Pommard Croix Noires Vintage:2009 Touch of cooked tomato –(from 70+ year old vines). Ripe and more deeply pitched aromas display notes of black cherry, raspberry, warm earth and a slightly gamy character. The succulent and round flavors possess a seductive mid palate that contrasts materially with the firm, compact, robust and muscular finale that offers excellent depth and persistence though here too at least 7 to 8 years of patience is counseled.
