2018 Pommard Les Perrières, Domaine Launay-Horiot

Xavier has just over two hectares of vines in Perrières and divides up his parcel into four separate plots so that he can micro manage both the viticulture and vinification more precisely. Work throughout the year and picking dates can be adapted to the subtle nuances of soil and exposure within these 4 quarters, allowing Xavier to maximise the full potential of this excellent site. The assembled wine sees 15% new oak and shows excellent bite and freshness, both aromatically and in the mouth and with a strong volume of fruit and an appealing sense of purity. This is an exceptionally grown up village wine.
