The 2005 Pommard Fremiers features blackberry and black raspberry mingled with sirloin juices, displaying a purity, clarity, and focus of fruit as well as a refinement of tannin that one often misses from Pommard. Faintly bitter overtones of lavender and rosemary help sustain the concentration and length on exhibit . This superb old vines material has completely resisted the barrel, and bids fair to evolve impressively for a decade or more. Also recommended: 2005 Fixin (unknown; 85-87). Having moved from Volnay to a newly-expanded facility he shares with his wife, Ghislaine Barthod, Louis Boillot fields a large and geographically diverse range of generally impressive, pure-fruited Pinots. (In rating them, I have left some leeway to allow for my previous unfamiliarity with Louis Boillot’s wines.)Importer: Rosenthal Wine Merchant, Pine Plains, NY; tel. (800) 910-1990.
