The 2022 Domaine de la Courcel Pommard Premier Cru Grand Clos des Épenots is an exceptional Premier Cru Burgundy crafted from Pinot Noir grown in Domaine de la Courcel's historic monopole vineyard. Renowned for its elegance, depth and remarkable ageing potential, this iconic wine beautifully expresses the power and finesse of the Épenots terroir. The nose is intensely aromatic, revealing aromas of black cherry, wild raspberry and blackberry, complemented by notes of violet, forest floor, sweet spice and finely integrated French oak.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with silky, fine-grained tannins, vibrant natural acidity and a beautifully layered texture, delivering flavours of black cherry, redcurrant and plum layered with hints of cedar, truffle and mineral complexity. The finish is long, refined and beautifully balanced, combining concentration with exceptional finesse.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a superb Premier Cru Burgundy for collectors and lovers of fine Pinot Noir seeking elegance, complexity and authentic Côte de Beaune character. Enjoy after a gentle decant or cellar confidently over the next 15–20 years. Ideal with roast duck, venison, beef Wellington, truffle-infused dishes or mature Comté and Époisses cheese.
