"The 2016 Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens (Domaine du Pavillon), released under the Domaine du Pavillon label by Albert Bichot, includes 40% whole-bunch fruit and 40% new oak. It has a clean and pure bouquet with wild strawberry, raspberry preserve and redcurrant aromas, the oak nicely integrated and gaining vigor in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a juicy entry, harmonious and pure with well-judged acidity and a sense of energy conveyed by the finish. Excellent."
