This is ripe and juicy, with bright acidity defining the black cherry, plum, oak spice and fruit cake aromas and flavors. Hints of licorice and leather flash on the lingering aftertaste. Drink now through 2033. 175 cases imported.

I underestimated Bouchard's 2017 Pommard 1er Cru just after bottling, and the wine has opened up in the last eight months to present quite a different picture. Revealing a rich bouquet of cherries and wild berries mingled with rich soil tones, smoked meats, spices and violets, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and charming, its generous core of sapid fruit framed by ripe tannins. Any asperity that I perceived in the spring has vanished.
