About this Wine
This isn’t your gruff, old-school Pommard. Grown on a steep, stony slope near the Volnay border, Les Chanlins brings black fruit muscle and floral finesse in equal measure. Rose petals, black pepper, and a core of dark cherry pulse through every sip — lifted by that mineral tension you only get from rock and slope. Silky. Serious. And seriously seductive.

Tasting Notes
All the dark fruit and grip you want from Pommard — but with flowers in its hair 🌹
Pommard with a Volnay Complex. Elegant but Earthy.
Forget the old-school idea of Pommard as the burly bruiser — this Premier Cru is more of a stiletto than a boot. Blackcurrant, cherry, and dark plum lead the charge, but there’s rose petal fragrance, vanilla spice, and a peppery flicker too. Thanks to the steep slope and fine stones underfoot, there’s minerality and finesse beneath all that fruit. This is structured, yes — but in a tailored kind of way. Give it a few years and it’ll absolutely sing.

The Plot
Les Chanlins lies right on the Volnay border and climbs a fairly steep slope scattered with small stones and low clay content. That terroir brings freshness and fine tannins — a more mineral, lifted take on Pommard. This cuvée is farmed under organic principles and picked by hand for maximum precision.
Technical Details
Grown on a steep, stony slope bordering Volnay, this cuvée from Les Chanlins was fermented with 50–80% whole bunches for lifted aromatics and structure. Élevage took place in a mix of 50% ceramic and 50% oak barrels, with no more than 20% new oak. Ceramic ageing keeps the purity of the fruit intact while allowing the wine’s peppery, mineral-driven profile to shine. A precise and polished Pommard with ageing potential.

Verified Trustpilot ReviewFAQs
Clear details, so you can buy with confidence
Is this wine ready to drink now?
This will benefit from time in the cellar. You can open it now if you enjoy youthful energy, but patience should bring more depth, harmony and complexity.
Should I buy one bottle or a few?
One to try, three if you want to follow it over time, six if you already know the producer or style. Burgundy moves quickly, and small parcels rarely hang around for long.
What if I’m not sure this is my style?
Use our live chat, or pop us an email. We specialise in Burgundy and are always happy to help. Our tasting notes are based on wines tasted by our founders and updated regularly, so you can buy with proper confidence.
How quickly will it arrive?
Fast. We ship every wine on a next-working-day service and dispatch Monday to Friday. At checkout, you can even choose a delivery day that suits you.
How is it packed?
Each bottle is wrapped in tissue before being carefully placed into our specially imported Italian boxes, tested to rigorous standards. We have literally dropped them from the first storey of our house. All our packaging is paper-based and recyclable.
Can I send it as a gift?
Absolutely. As standard, our wines arrive wrapped in bespoke tissue paper. At checkout, you can also add gift bags, gift boxes and notes.
