Aromas typically unfold with layers of dried cherry, plum, forest floor, truffle, leather, and gentle spice, often gaining savory complexity as the wine opens.\n\nOn the palate, Pommard usually brings a firmer, more masculine style of Burgundy, with concentrated fruit, earthy depth, and a structured spine of tannin. With age, the wine develops tertiary notes of game, tobacco, mushroom, and undergrowth, while retaining enough freshness to keep the finish lifted and long.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClos des Epeneaux is a historic Premier Cru monopole in Pommard, a terroir known for limestone and clay soils that give Pinot Noir both power and aromatic complexity.
