Description of the Cuvée Pommard Rouge

The Cuvée Pommard Rouge from Domaine de la Roche Aiguë is a robust and elegant wine, made from the Pinot Noir grape variety. Cultivated in the Pommard appellation, known for its full-bodied and deep red wines, this wine reflects the intensity and complexity that the limestone and clay terroir can provide. This Pommard is aged in oak barrels to develop its structure and enrich its aromatic profile, while respecting the purity of the red and black fruits typical of this grape variety.

Aromas of the Cuvée

This Pommard releases intense aromas of black cherry, blackberry and blackcurrant, with notes of damp earth, leather and fine spices. Barrel aging brings touches of vanilla and toast which blend harmoniously with fruit aromas to create a rich and complex olfactory experience.

Characteristics of the Cuvée

Grape variety: Pinot Noir
Profile: Pommard Rouge is characterized by a very present but elegantly melted tannin structure, with balanced acidity which brings freshness and dynamism to the wine. The texture is voluptuous, offering a long and lingering finish.
Aging Potential: This wine has excellent aging potential, capable of improving and developing more complex and nuanced aromas with the years in the cellar.

Pairings with this Cuvée

Ideal to accompany dishes rich in flavors such as feathered game, grilled or sauced red meats, and mature cheeses. The pronounced character of this Pommard makes it a privileged partner for elaborate dishes, where it can fully express its richness and complexity.

Where are we traveling?

Burgundy is a real adventure land for wine lovers! Supported by a predominantly continental climate, Burgundy wines draw their unique character from diverse influences — continental, Mediterranean and oceanic — which intertwine to create a symphony of incomparable flavors. It is this climatic fusion that allows each Burgundy Grand Cru to reveal aromas and flavors that some consider to be the best in the world. From north to south, each Burgundian wine region, from Chablis to Mâconnais, benefits from its own microclimate. In Chablis, winegrowers combat spring frosts by wrapping the vines in a protective cocoon of frozen water. On the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune, the hills capture the sunlight, generating hot summers which fill the grapes with sunshine, while the Mâconnais benefits from an almost Mediterranean climate, less prone to frost and drier. This mix of climatic conditions, combined with a diverse geology with more than 400 different soil types, gives each Burgundy wine its own identity. Each bottle is a story of terroir, a story of land and climate, an invitation to explore the rich wine heritage of Burgundy.

The little history of the country

Burgundy

France, home of Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne, is undoubtedly the most important wine producing country in the world. For centuries, it produced wine in greater quantities than any other country. Wine is ingrained in French culture at almost every level of society; it is the drink of the elite and the common people, and a key symbol of Roman Catholicism, the majority religion in France. The diversity of French wines is due, in large part, to the country's wide variety of climates.
