Ageing potential

In good conditions, it can wait 10 years before being tasted and thus reveal to amateurs the evolved aromas of leather and venison.

Origins

Pommard is one of the most famous villages in the Côte de Beaune, located 5 km south of Beaune on the Route des Grands Crus. The vineyard extends over 322 hectares and produces only red wines, with a proportion of 36% rated 1er Cru.

The climat “Les Charmots” is located mid-slope just north of the village with an heavenly south-east exposure. Here the soil is rich in clay which gives their strength to the wines, and tinted with red for its richness in iron.

The name "Les Charmots" can come from hornbeams that might have grown there once or from the fact that it was an uncultivated land before people started growing vines (from tje latin word CALMIS/CALMA which means stony land).
