Glantenay/Georges Pommard 1er cru Les Rugiens-Hauts 2019

92-94 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): “Though from the upper part, Guillaume Glantenay notes that their Rugiens still has the iron rich red soil. Not especially deep in colour. A fine, but reserved bouquet. This is all about refinement more than power, though there is certainly adequate concentration. Note the detailed fresh red fruit behind. (Dec 2020)”

91-94 points/’Outstanding,’ Allen Meadows (Burghound): “(from a .22 ha holding). Background hints of herbal tea and the sauvage can be found on the liqueur-like aromas of various dark berries and newly turned earth. Once again, the middle weight flavors possess a gorgeous texture and plenty of minerality on the punchy, detailed and chiseled finish where a touch of youthful austerity emerges. This is a big but sleek Rugiens and that is clearly built-to-age. Strongly recommended if you have the patience. Drink: 2031+. (Apr 2021)”
