The 2013 Pommard 1er Cru Rugiens has an attractive, lively crisp bouquet in the making: good energy levels here with lifted raspberry preserve and crushed strawberry scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, slightly brittle tannins but there is decent crunchy cranberry and strawberry fruit to back them up. The finish feels just a little hard at the moment but it should soften by the time of bottling. Fine.
