Pommard 1er Cru Clos Des Epeneaux Domaine Comtes Armand, 2021

Pommard 1er Cru Clos des Epeneaux is one of the most admired expressions of Pinot Noir from the Côte de Beaune, combining power, structure, and remarkable precision. From the historic Clos des Epeneaux monopole, this 2021 release captures both the elegance of Burgundy and the depth that has made Domaine Comtes Armand a benchmark producer in Pommard.

Tasting Notes
Expect a wine of dark ruby intensity in the glass, with a refined yet serious presence. The nose typically opens with red and black cherry, wild strawberry, rose petal, spice, and subtle earthy notes, while the palate is layered and focused, showing fine-grained tannins, bright acidity, and a long, mineral-driven finish. The 2021 vintage is likely to emphasize freshness, detail, and finesse over raw power, making it particularly appealing for those who enjoy a more classic, terroir-transparent style of Burgundy. While approachable with time, this is a wine with excellent aging potential and should continue to develop complexity over many years in bottle.

Production
Clos des Epeneaux is a renowned Premier Cru monopole in Pommard, benefiting from clay-limestone soils that lend structure, depth, and impressive aging capacity to the wine. Domaine Comtes Armand is known for careful vineyard work and selective harvesting, aiming to capture the purity and character of the site. Vinification is typically handled with a restrained Burgundian approach, allowing the Pinot Noir to express its natural balance, finesse, and site-specific complexity.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with dishes that complement its structure and savory depth, such as roast duck, pheasant, braised lamb, mushroom risotto, or game birds with earthy sauces. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if enjoyed young to help the aromas open and the tannins soften.
