Billard-Gonnet, Pommard 1er Les Rugiens - Bas, 2010
Les Rugiens-Bas is widely considered Pommard's finest terroir, the parcel many argue deserves grand cru status. Domaine Billard-Gonnet has farmed here since 1766, working in open vats with hand punch-downs and bottling without fining or filtration. The iron-rich soils produce a dense, structured wine that needs years to unwind. The 2010 was a small, concentrated, classically built vintage, and this bottle still has the backbone to reward more cellaring even as it enters a fine drinking window.
