Pousse’s attention to detail and dedication to sustainable viticulture is serious. For years the estate cared for its vines according to organic principles; since 2012, Pousse has incorporated biodynamic practices across all its holdings. As of 2018, the estate has been certified biodynamic per Demeter, a standards body.

Intense black purple colour, more purple. The nose does not give much at first but there is a wealth of dark fruit on the palate, with a few red notes which sneak in, gracious for a Pommard, the structure is there but the tannins are covered by the fruit, finishes well with a fresher touch. Great persistence. Silken Pommard! - Jasper Morris

Once again there is a whisper of VA but it's not enough to materially detract from the more deeply pitched aromas of plum liqueur, earth and gentle wood scents. There is more size, weight, power and concentration if notably less finesse to the medium-bodied flavors that also exude a subtle minerality on the solidly constituted and lingering finish. This is definitely a muscular Pommard but it's not rustic. (Drink starting 2028)
