Mincemeat-like carnal, spicy, zesty, and ripe, berryish notes rise from the glass of Lafarge 2006 Pommard Pezerolles. Plum and blackberry studded with brown spices and underlain by roasted meat fill out a surprisingly plush palate, and minty and resinous flavors add to an already complex array. To be sure, though, there is plenty of tannic structure here – though relatively well-covered by fruit – and one can anticipate at least ten or a dozen years of satisfaction. This was the last-bottled of its collection, and I am wondering whether the finish in particular will have gained short term from a bit more rest.Frederic and Michel Lafarge are consistently adept in challenging vintages, and succeeded admirably in 2006, harvesting from September 20 until the end of that month. To hear them tell (as well as to taste the results) their fruit was largely healthy, and sorting was principally to remove under-ripe berries and clusters. Not surprisingly, they chalk this up to vine management. "Biodynamic treatments permit the vine to overcome the stress of weather extremes," such as characterized 2006, asserts Frederic Lafarge. Michel Lafarge points out that the same – to his mind ideal – 12.5-13+% potential alcohol was reached over the same period in premier cru and non-cru sites alike, a phenomenon due in part, he believes, to his estate's high average age of vine.A Becky Wasserman Selection, Le Serbet (various importers), fax 011-33-3-80-24-29-70
