Pommard 1er cru ’les Rugiens-Hauts’ - (19) G.Glantenay

The 2019 Pommard Les Rugiens-Haut 1er Cru has an elegant Morello cherry, strawberry and wilted rose petal nose, a touch of sous-bois, nicely-defined with good presence. The palate is fleshy and sweet with hints of Clementine infusing the red fruit, good acidity here with ample length and weight. This has the substance that is missing in some of Glantenay's other cuvées, hence the higher score. 90/100 Neal Martin on March 2022

Domaine Georges Glantenay

Georges Glantenay is a sister-and-brother joint venture, with Sarah in charge of sales and brother Guillaume in charge of viticulture and winemaking. 

The 2019s here are, as expected, vivid and lively, and as the years pass, Guillaume gets better and better at his job. He has enough experience now that he feels confident in experimenting a bit. This is good, as the wines here are both lovely and relatively affordable – for the time being. The wines are very enjoyable, but make no mistake: They strike a fine balance between complexity and drinkability. Well done!
