Producer's Notes: 

Between Beaune and Volnay extends the vast vineyard of Pommard which unfolds on each side of a monumental combe. The plot "Les Arvelets" is located at the exit of this valley on the north slope. Exposed south with a clay-limestone soil rich in iron oxide covered with alluvium and silt, this premier cru is the steepest of the appellation. The Latin roots of the word "arvelet" refer to the presence of old fields, plowing land at this location.

An array of very attractive ripe red cherries, plums and blackberries. Plenty of spices with an earthy edge, too. The palate has a smooth and supple feel with a wealth of fine-grained tannins that delivers an evenhanded long and fluid appeal.
