Ideally situated halfway up a south-facing hillside, the Premier Cru “Les Charmots” thrives on this exceptional terroir. This climat is the most elegant Premier Cru in the village of Pommard. Its name references the large hornbeam trees that once grew on this land. Here, the Pinot Noir gets its unique character from an intensely red limestone soil, full of iron oxide and resting on a Ladoix limestone subsoil. The nose opens beautifully with a complex bouquet of ripe red berries, subtly enhanced by hints of spice. On the palate, the texture is creamy and silky, supported by fine, supple tannins. The overall impression is airy, precise, and vibrant. “Les Charmots” possesses that rare ability to combine density and lightness. This signature quality makes it a real crowd-pleaser: it’s a wine that captivates with its brilliance in its youth, but also likes to play hard to get and grows in complexity as it ages.
