2022 Marthe Henry Boillot Pommard Les Vignots
The Pommard "Les Vignots" is a quintessential expression of this powerful Côte de Beaune village, known for producing wines with muscle and structure. "Les Vignots" is a noted lieu-dit that yields structured, concentrated Pinot Noir. The 2022 is expected to be tightly wound and profound, revealing dark fruit—black cherry and plum—alongside notes of savory spice, leather, and firm earth. The palate is full-bodied and robust, with concentrated fruit framed by powerful, yet beautifully integrated, tannins. This is a serious wine that demands cellar time; it will soften and evolve over a decade or more.
