The winery's philosophy is deeply committed to biodynamic and organic viticulture, having eliminated synthetic chemicals in the 1980s. For their Pommard, the Drouhin family sources fruit from diverse parcels to capture the village's reputation for producing the "most powerful" of all Burgundy wines.
Wine Description
Joseph Drouhin Pommard presents a deep, dark red appearance. The sensory profile is intense and "manly," featuring a nose of blackberries and bilberries, layered with sophisticated notes of musk, smoke, and occasionally dark chocolate or leather with age. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and "upright," showcasing a firm structure with flavours of ripe dark fruit and earthy undertones. It is characterized by its strong tannins and a solid backbone that provides great longevity, leading to a lingering, savory finish. This 100% Pinot Noir typically reaches an ABV of 13% to 13.5% and is matured for 12 to 15 months in French oak (approximately 20% new). The estate is certified organic, with many sites managed biodynamically.
