Domaine de Courcel 2007 Les Rugiens Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Pommard)
- Cellar Selection
- $80
This has the great aromatic complexity you expect from Rugiens. Generous and full textured, this is a full-bodied, rounded wine. Sweet red fruits, touched by spice, are well balanced with a streak of acidity. Wait for four years, at least.

Domaine Parent 2006 Les Rugiens Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Pommard)
- Cellar Selection
Initially, the red fruits dominate, exploding in the mouth. Then the tannins take over, giving a wine that is hugely structured and powerful. The fruits, though, are as impressive as the tannins, the combination giving a wine that is both juicy and smoky, finished with new wood.

Domaine Parent 2006 Les Epenots Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Pommard)
A powerful, almost severe wine, with a strong core of dry tannins over the black fruits. There are hints of red cherry and spice from wood. The main structure dominates, and will need several years to round out.

Pierre Morey 2005 Grands Epenots Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Pommard)
- Cellar Selection
- $95
A beautiful rounded wine, full of juicy fruit, but sustained by a strong tannic structure. This dryness suggests good aging potential, as does the ripeness of the fruit and the acidity. Keep for at least 6 years.

Domaine Parent 2003 Les Rugiens Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Pommard)
- Online Exclusive
Ripe, generous, powerful and opulent, the wine combines blackberry juice character with mature spice and mushroom flavors. This is a massive wine, with a gorgeous velvet texture, only a taut core of tannins. Despite moving towards a mature phase, it has many years ahead.

Louis Jadot 2005 Epenots Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Pommard)
- $58
A dark-fruited wine, with layers of wild strawberries, red currants and enticing perfumed acidity. That’s the outward show; inside this is a dense wine, with dark tannins and a firm heart, which will mature over decades.
— R.V.

Domaine Parent 2004 Les Rugiens Prement Cru Pinot Noir (Pommard)
- Online Exclusive
A wine with a very ripe, wild strawberry character, meaty and savage. The fruits are just moving out from behind the structure, the maturity not yet coming in. An impressive wine, hinting at power.
— R.V.

Domaine de Montille 2007 Les Rugiens Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Pommard)
An elegant style, showing a fresh character, packed with red berries, softly textured. It is a beautiful wine. Though not for long-term aging, it has great style, finishing with perfectly formed acidity and spice.
