Description
What kind of wine it is
Jean Gagnerot Pommard 1er Cru La Platiere is a still red wine made from Pinot Noir, which reveals a ruby red colour in the glass. On the nose, it expresses a precise bouquet, with delicate floral notes and intense aromas of red fruits. On the palate, it presents itself as a well-structured wine, refined and perfectly balanced, capable of a long evolution that can exceed twenty-five years. After adequate decanting, it pairs beautifully with grilled game, lamb in sauce and pork-based dishes, skilfully balancing the savouriness of mature cheeses.
Where it comes from
This wine originates in France, in the heart of Burgundy, within the commune of Pommard. The Pinot Noir vines grow in the La Platiere climat, a single plot classified as Premier Cru, which identifies the exact origin of the production. The characteristics of the soil and the microclimate of this area, combined with the meticulous agronomic work of Jean Gagnerot, define this Pommard Premier Cru, steering it towards a clear aromatic expressiveness and offering an authentic representation of the terroir.
How it is produced
Production relies exclusively on Pinot Noir grapes, vinified to preserve the natural integrity of the fruit. The red vinification is calibrated to extract the correct colour contribution and a solid tannic structure, keeping the characteristic floral and fruity aromatic profile at the centre of the tasting experience. Ageing softens the more austere components, defining the final structure and promoting longevity over time. Careful processing enhances the virtues of the grape variety, ensuring a harmonious taste balance on the palate.
