DOM LAUNAY-HORIOT POMMARD LES PERRIERES 2022

Native yeast fermentation and careful oak integration define how Xavier Horiot approaches Les Perrières — a 2.2-hectare Pommard plot farmed under lutte raisonnée. The vines, planted in 1902, push roots through limestone-rich soils that lend a crushed-stone mineral thread to the wine. Low yields from these centenarian plants produce small, concentrated berries. The 2022 delivers fresh raspberry and red cherry with warm spice on the nose; the palate is precise and structured, finishing with lingering minerality and fine tannins.
