"By contrast, here the intense, elegant, airy and almost startlingly fresh red berry fruit nose is expressive to the point of exuberance as the nose explodes from the glass with a flourish to reveal delicious, rich and full yet beautifully delineated and ultra pure flavors that are focused, linear and penetrating on the distinctly mineral-infused finish. This is a really lovely and sophisticated Pommard that bears more than a passing resemblance to its ‘across the border’ Volnay neighbor Frémiets."

"Landanger’s 2005 Pommard Jarollieres smells and tastes of mulberry and black cherry laced with wood smoke, pitting mineral and forest floor bass notes against juicy fresh black fruits on the palate, and the invigorating raw berry fruit character helps relieve what could otherwise be a rather somber, dark vinous personality. This combines refined tannins and depth and clarity of fruit with a tremendous amount of sheer density. I would check back in 5-7 years but expect improvement for an equal period thereafter." -Robert Parker
