The ruby-colored Pommard displays a sweet and perfumed nose of ripe red cherries, followed by a silky-textured, medium-bodied, floral, raspberry, cinnamon and spice-flavored palate. Vivacious and well crafted, it will be at its best between 1998-2003. As always, ratings with a score in parentheses indicate the wine was tasted from cask, not bottle.
