\u00a0A BURGUNDY WITH A REPUTATION OVERSEAS: POMMARD<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2600 \u00a0<\/span>Visit Pommard wine<\/strong> is undoubtedly one of the most famous Burgundy wines abroad, especially in England. Present only in the commune of Pommard<\/strong>Located between Beaune and Volnay, this 341-hectare appellation was one of the first AOCs to be instituted in 1936, and produces exclusively red wines from Pinot Noir grapes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pommard is very well known across the Channel, as in the Middle Ages it was considered THE benchmark for Burgundy wines. The wines are planted on ancient alluvial soils in the middle of the slopes. If you go a little higher, the vines benefit from clay-limestone soils for the best terroirs. For the more fortunate, a little further up, the Oxfordian marls of the Jurassic era, combined with the brown limestone soils, add complexity and another dimension to the wines.<\/span><\/p>\n

POMMARD: MANY PREMIERS CRUS, NO GRANDS CRUS<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

?\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span>You get the idea, visit<\/strong> Pommard wines do not have Grands Crus<\/strong>but have a plethora of premiers crus :<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>28 to be exact, each with its own typicity depending on its geographical location. Some Premier Crus stand out from the crowd, such as \"Les Rugiens\", \"Les Bertins\" and \"Les Epenots\".<\/span><\/p>\n

It's often said that Pommard wines are powerful and dense, compared to the neighboring Volnay appellation, which is considered more delicate. But this is not the case... of course, there is a trend towards more pronounced tannins. But some villages to the south of Pommard are remarkably velvety and delicate. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is therefore important to be familiar with the premier cru de Pommard<\/strong> that you'll be buying and what you want, as the texture and fruit can be completely different. As a general rule, these wines go perfectly with red meats, rib steaks or butcher's cuts with a little character. The more delicate Pommards can be enjoyed with stews and sauces. The silkiness and roundness of the wine won't overwhelm the dishes, and will go very well with them.<\/span><\/p>\n
