Description

Domaine de Courcel, located in Pommard, is one of Burgundy grandest estates, having been in the ownership of the de Courcel family since its foundation 400 years ago. Le Grand Clos des Epenots is a monopoly of the Domaine in Pommard. The plot of 4.89 hectares of land is located north of Pommard, at the start of the slope and is east facing. The soil, which is rich in clay and limestone, is brown and strewn with limestone rocks. The depth of the soil is around 40-60 cm and its structure acts as a natural filter. The vines are 60 years old and produce wines with aromas of red berries and also ripe white fruits such as peaches or apricots. The fine tannins are numerous and blend in nicely with the smoothness and the aromas.
