Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens ’11 from Thierry Glantenay appears to have some whole bunch on the slightly green, tertiary nose; one that is well defined and more traditional in style vis-à-vis its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with the oak deftly embroidered into the fleshy red and black fruit, with poise and focus on the finish. This is a lovely Pommard that should drink well for several years, though I think Thierry has conjured better wines.
