2018 Domaine Didier Montchovet Pommard

From: Pommard, Burgundy, France Varietal: Pinot Noir Taste: You’ll find that this wine offers notes of dark raspberries, wild strawberries and ripe plums, which combine very quickly with cocoa, a little cinnamon and the best wood. Fine-grained tannins, and an evolving palate that will keep you intrigued the whole night long.  Pairing: At its best between 4 and 12 years. Taste with rich powerful meats or game when young, with all types of meat or cheese thereafter The story of Didier Montchovet is one of dedication and passion. In 1984 Didier decided he would pursue a organic/biodynamic approach which was not a popular idea at the time in Burgundy. Because of this there was no help from his family, and he started off on his own leasing just half a hectare of vines (just over one acre). It was a slow process. He acquired another 6 acres (2.5 hectares) in ’89 and officially released his first vintage for sale in 1990. Didier has continued to grow with the utmost concern for the land, addi
