Pousse d'Or Pommard 1er cru Les Jarollières 2009

94 points Antonio Galloni (Wine Advocate): "The 2009 Pommard Les Jarolieres saturates the palate with its round, ripe fruit. This shows lovely depth and richness, then turns quite a bit more powerful and tannic on the finish. Sweet menthol and crushed rocks wrap around the close. Les Jarolieres is on the border with Volnay. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2039. (May 2011)"

93 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "A completely different fruit profile is present here as the red currant, earth and wet stone aromas are followed by rich, full and naturally sweet mineral-driven flavors possess excellent mid-palate density and outstanding precision and length on the palate staining finish. I very much like the sense of underlying tension though fans of this wine should note that plenty of patience will be required. Comments: Sweet spot Outstanding. Drink: 2024+. (May 2011)"

91-93 points Stephen Tanzer (Vinous): "(from vines adjacent to Volnay) Deep ruby-red. Wild smoky reduction currently dominates the nose; one smells the site's warm red soil. Then sweet and fine-grained in the style of a Volnay, showing no roughness of texture even at this early stage. This big, rich wine boasts plenty of phenolic material but the broad tannins are fine and horizontal. Finishes saline and long, with some acidity yet to be integrated. (Jan/Feb 2011)"

92 points (16/20) La Revue du Vin de France: "The Pommard Les Jarollières is a wine of great distinction, with beautifully refined tannins. (2012)"

Prime vineyard bordering Rugiens.
