2021 Pommard 1er Cru La Platière, Domaine Violot-Guillemard

2021 Pommard 1er Cru La Platière, Domaine Violot-Guillemard

This south facing parcel is tucked up the valley slope, so on the Beaune (i.e. north) side of the village, facing directly towards Volnay. It’s a cool site, thanks to the fresh breeze that is drawn down through the vines, but the white soil and south-facing exposure means it can heat up pretty quickly when the sun shines. Joannes has used 50% whole bunch fruit in the vinification here. There’s a wonderful purity of red plum and cherry fruit as a result, with fine, slightly chalky tannins. This has fabulous elegance.
