Clos des Epeneaux is one of Pommard`s most prestigious Premier Cru vineyards, located at the base of the Côte d`Or escarpment. It is a walled vineyard, planted entirely to Pinot Noir and a monopole of Comte Armand, who uses most of the grapes to make this Clos des Epeneaux Premier Cru wine. 1996 was an outstanding vintage for both white and red Burgundy which are dinking beautifully now.

The 1996 Pommard Clos des Epeneaux 1er Cru is definitely an improvement over the 1998 and 1999 that were tasted alongside. It has a lovely nose with brambly red fruit, spicebox and wilted rose petals, becoming increasingly sappy with aeration. The palate is well-defined with fine red berry fruit and nicely judged acidity. Yes, there is a little stubbornness toward the finish, and you could argue that it's a bit clunky. But this is at least pleasurable to the senses and continues to drink well. Tasted at the Clos des Epeneaux vertical in London.Neal Martin1st April 2023
