Domaine de Courcel Les Frémiers Pommard 1er Cru 2022

This year, the Fremiers from Courcel is an explosion of fruit, with bright blackberry and cassis aromas edged with pepper and bay leaf. The texture is velvety and dense, with ripe, supple tannins and impressive length. The 0.79-hectare parcel lies in fairly deep clay soils just south of Croix Noires. This wine is a classic of the domaine, made with a whole cluster ferment and very little new oak. The wine should open in three to five years and will drink for the next 20. Drinking window: 2030-2065. (Charles Curtis, MW,decanter.com,May 29, 2023)
