Description
Fontaine-Gagnard's Pommard Premier Cru Les Rugiens is made from Pinot Noir in the Les Rugiens Hauts sector. The parcel faces southeast and has brown clay-limestone soils containing iron ore. The climat name refers to ground where the clay takes on a red colour. Fermentation relies on indigenous yeasts, and the wine matures in oak barrels according to the estate's practice. Its character is fruity and spicy, with a powerful, lively palate. The combination of energy and structure defines this red expression of Pommard within the domaine's range.
