Pommard

Pommard stands for powerful, structured Pinot Noir in the Côte de Beaune – and Domaine Chanson delivers a classic expression of this appellation with this village wine.

Chanson is one of the oldest négociant houses in Beaune, founded in 1750, and is now owned by the Bollinger Champagne group. The domaine manages around 45 hectares in the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits, including several Premier Cru sites. The Pommard comes from the clay-rich limestone soils below the village – a soil structure that gives the Pinot Noir here its typical density and tannin structure.

In the glass, deep ruby red. On the nose, black cherry and blackberry, underscored by licorice, clove, and a hint of earth. On the palate, medium to full body, firm but ripe tannins, lively acidity. The finish is long and spicy with an aftertaste of red fruits and elderberry.

Serving temperature: 16–18 °C. Pairs with leg of lamb with herbs, game ragout, or mature Époisses.
