Domaine Heitz-Lochardet Description
From a tiny 0.66 ha monopole (1.63 acres)
Vinous: 90 Points
The 2017 Pommard Clos des Poutures ler Cru has a fresh, undergrowth-tinged bouquet that is a little loose-knit at the moment, though I am sure it will muster more cohesion with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin. This is an elegant, beautifully poised Pommard with a pretty, peppery finish, the oak neatly embroidered. Not long-term, but certainly well crafted by Armand Heitz.
Burghound: 90 Points
This too is softly toasty with an abundance of earth and underbrush characters suffusing the slightly more elegant red currant-scented nose. The nicely detailed medium weight flavors possess an elegant mouth feel thanks mainly to the relatively fine-grained tannins shaping the attractively complex and lingering finish that reflects only a hint of Pommard-like rusticity.
