1985 Comte Armand Pommard 1er Cru "Clos des Epeneaux"

Very little bricking, indeed almost none. A really beguiling nose that remains quite fresh offers up a mix of mostly secondary fruit though there is a nugget of primary fruit that remains on the layered, airy, earthy and spicy nose. The equally earthy and minerally medium-bodied flavors are rich, full, deep and wonderfully detailed on the naturally sweet and velvety finish. I particularly like the solid mid-palate fat that largely if not completely buffers the ever-so-slightly dry but gorgeously long finish. This is a notably youthful '85 that should continue to drink well for years to come if properly stored.
