The beginning of the 2020 Burgundy harvest marked the earliest start to picking in the last 25 years, and the warmer-than-average temperatures, combined with a lack of precipitation, reduced the yield of many crops. Thankfully, the grapes that thrived produced wines with unbelievable freshness, texture, concentration, and vibrant acidity.
Pommard is an acclaimed commune in the Côte de Beaune of Burgundy, perched between the iconic villages of Beaune and Volnay.

Best known for its clay-limestone and iron-rich soils, wines from Pommard typically have a powerful structure and deep, dark color with reddish-mauve highlights. As they mature, these wines become firmer, more concentrated, and structured, with notes of leather and chocolate.
