The 2018 Chassagne-Montrachet Maltroie 1er Cru shows a bit of eggy SO2 on the nose that blurs the edges. Despite rigorous aeration I found it impossible to shift. The palate is balanced, missing a bit of acidity, yet lacks a bit of amplitude. With modest depth, at least it is harmonious on the white peach and Clementine-infused finish that becomes woody with aeration. Perhaps give it another year in bottle.

Light yellow in colour, with an attractive fruit along with a very gently toasty character. I like the balance of this, the energy of the fruit continuing right across the palate. Not too ripe either. Well judged. Some personality here in a gentle register.In BondSG$785.00 -

The 2015 Pommard 1er Cru Clos des Poutures has a generous raspberry coulis and cranberry scented bouquet, a puff of chalk dust in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with an austere entry, a classically styled Pommard that needs a little more flesh and density on the finish. I suspect it would show better with another year in bottle.In BondSG$671.00 -

The 2016 Pommard Clos des Poutures 1er Cru has an attractive bouquet with brambly red berry fruit, briary and light sous-bois aromas, classic in style and very well focused. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly raw tannin, hints of tomato vine lacing the red fruit with a straightforward and conservative finish. Probably not a long-term Pommard.

The 2018 Pommard Clos des Poutures 1er Cru has a lighter bouquet, more transparent than its peers. It exhibits more "Pinoté", brambly red fruit, rose petal and hints of orange pith. Good use of whole cluster is evident. The palate is crisp and fresh with crunchy red fruit, "cooler" than its peers which is some achievement given the warmth this year. Fresh and saline on the finish, this is a classy Pommard that beckons you back for another sip. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting.In BondSG$742.00 -

Picked 19th September, with enough fruit for two tanks: one was destemmed and the other not at all. Fresh light purple, one never expects a great depth of colour from the Clos des Poutures. This is very attractive and with a bit more flesh round the edges than sometimes, enough acidity, some tannins from the terroir and the vinification, but overall making an attractive ensemble here with some length.In BondSG$162.00 -
