Details and technical informations about Winery Christian Michel's Cuvée du Grand Bailiy Tête de Cuvée Pommard.
Discover the grape variety: Baco
Lively whites with pronounced acidity, a pale golden robe, a light, nervous palate, and discrete aromas of citrus (lemon) and slightly foxy hybrid notes. Disease-resistant. Mainly used for distillation into Armagnac; represents a significant share of the Landes vineyards and defines the aromatic identity of Gascon eaux-de-vie (characteristic rancio notes). French white hybrid obtained in 1898 by François Baco (folle blanche × noah).

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: Marc
Solid part resulting from the pressing of the grape (stalks, pips, skins).
