Here too there is a lovely sense of energy and punch to the muscular but not really rustic broad-shouldered flavors that also possess very good if not sensational mid-palate concentration before culminating in a balanced and palate coating finish

Vincent Dancer, Pommard Perrieres Size:6x750ml the Roagna 2014 Barbaresco AlbesaniThis is aromatically similar to the Montrevenots if perhaps just a bit earthier. There is more volume if slightly less refinement to the medium bodied flavors that also reflected a touch of minerality on the focused, powerful and only mildly rustic finale. This is a very good Pommard villages and worth considering.
