POMMARD 1er Cru Clos des Épeneaux Domaine Comte Armand 2018
The 2018 Pommard Clos des Epeneaux 1er Cru is much more understated on the nose compared to its peers. Well-defined, with red berry fruit, forest floor, bay leaf and light truffle scents. The palate is well balanced with sappy red fruit, lightly spiced with candid orange peel and blood orange surfacing towards the persistent finish. It does not quite have the pedigree of the very finest 2018s Pommard, but it is clearly well made. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting.
The Hilt Radian Chardonnay, Sta Rita Hills, Santa Barbara 2019
White flowers, almonds, and apricots with herbal notes of lemon verbena and lavender. Obviously ripe but the elevanted position brings welcome freshness and balance to this super wine.
