🏰 Philippe Pacalet is a highly regarded natural winemaker in Burgundy, known for his non-interventionist approach, using native yeasts and avoiding new oak to express the purest form of the terroir. His Pommard 2019 is a red Burgundy made from Pinot Noir. The 2019 vintage in Burgundy was generally excellent, producing wines with both richness and freshness, and good aging potential. Pacalet's Pommard is often characterized by its refined and fleshy profile, with spicy notes, musky fruits like wild strawberries, and cedar wood. It's described as a seductive and deep wine, with a focused and amazingly velvety palate, super-fine tannins, and a mix of red and black berry characters with a suggestion of violets. Some notes also mention ripe and very fresh aromas blending red and dark pinot fruit with violet and cool earth, showing outstanding intensity and subtle minerality. 【 Purity of terroir from a natural winemaking pioneer 】 🍴 This expressive Pinot Noir would be a superb match for classic Burgundian dishes. Consider beef bourguignon, roasted lamb, duck confit, or mushroom-based dishes. Its refined tannins and fruit profile also make it suitable for aged hard cheeses like Comté or Gruyère. 🥂 Ideal for a special dinner, a gathering of Burgundy enthusiasts, or as a thoughtful gift for someone who appreciates natural wines and elegant Pinot Noir. It's a wine that offers both immediate pleasure and potential for further evolution.
