Benjamin Leroux Pommard 1er Cru Rugiens Hauts 2017 Current Release and with good acidity

and with good acidity

Mineral- and smoke-accented dark berry

Admirably discreet wood easily allows the restrained aromas of herbal tea

it's one of the best wines of this very uneven vintage

Benjamin Leroux Pommard 1er Cru Rugiens Hauts 2017 Current Release and with good acidityThe 2017 Pommard Les Rugiens Haut 1er Cru includes 50% whole bunch fruit this year. It has a mineral driven, sea cave scented bouquet that is racy and vivacious. The palate is medium bodied with plump, pure black fruit, a pitch perfect line of acidity and a rich, generous finish that is going to make a lot of people happy. Excellent. Neal Martin Vinous
