Nicolas-Joseph 2019
-
With a deep ruby color, our Nicolas-Joseph 2019 reveals a nose marked by garden-fresh English roses accompanied by ripe black fruit and sweet spices. The palate confirms the aromatic profile and unveils notes of cinnamon and clove. With its relaxed tannins, this round and full-bodied Pommard can be enjoyed today, but will reach its peak in the next decade.
