The wine region of Pommard
Sturdy bastion of the Côte de Beaune: signature Pinot Noir as exclusive king red — deep red with mauve glints, frank and powerful with notes of blackberry, blueberry, redcurrant, concentrated cherry and ripe plum, evolving into leather, pepper and chocolate with age, firm tannins and dense structure. More powerful and tannic than its neighbours (Volnay, Beaune), needing a few years' cellaring. Village AOC (1936) between Beaune and Volnay, rich clay-limestone, 28 Premiers Crus (Rugiens, Épenots).
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Tanin
A natural compound contained in the skin of the grape, the seed or the woody part of the bunch, the stalk. The maceration of red wines allows the extraction of tannins, which give the texture, the solidity and also the mellowness when the tannins are "ripe". The winemaker seeks above all to extract the tannins from the skin, the ripest and most noble. The tannins of the seed or stalk, which are "greener", especially in average years, give the wine hardness and astringency. The wines of Bordeaux (based on Cabernet and Merlot) are full of tannins, those of Burgundy much less so, with Pinot Noir containing little.
