Château Nénin, Fugue de Nénin, (Magnum) 2020
Fugue de Nénin was created and first sold in 1997. Fugue comes from sandy-clay soils found in the eastern part of the Château's vineyards, as well as from the young vines planted on the great plateau terroirs. This second wine is a typical example of the charm of Pomerol. Fugue is a reference to music; it means a repetition of the main theme. This name makes sense when you taste the wine - Fugue complements the tonalities of its older sibling extremely well, while providing its own attractive and entertaining rendition. The wines are smooth and silky and can be enjoyed earlier than those of the Grand Vin.
Pommard, Les Cras, Domaine de Montille 2017
Domaine de Montille is one of Burgundy's great reference points for Pinot Noir made without cosmetic intervention — wines that are lean, precise, and built to last. Les Cras sits on the northern edge of Pommard, just below Volnay, and it shows: there's an elegance here that isn't typical of Pommard's more muscular reputation, with fine-grained tannin and a cool, iron-edged character that sets it apart from the richer, chunkier wines further south in the appellation. The 2017 vintage across the Côte de Beaune produced wines of real concentration — a warm, dry summer after a frost-reduced crop — and Les Cras has responded beautifully with depth without heaviness.
