Wine Critic Reviews
Undeniably rich in fruit yet uncompromisingly tannic, the 2005 Pommard Fremiers features tart black cherry, bitter-sweet preserved walnut, pungent flowers, and beef bouillon. Pithy in its fine tannins and faintly bitter fruit pit personality, salty, and piquantly nutty, it lays down impressive finishing traces, though dogged by tannins that must at some point come to heel if this well-concentrated and complex wine is to fulfil its potential.

Good full red. Superripe aromas and flavors of strawberry liqueur and licorice. Huge, sweet and distinctly liqueur-like. A monster, Confuron agreed, like 2002 in the direction of 2003. It has balance and richness but not real class. Finishes with big, broad tannins and an almost roasted ripeness. This persistent, outsized wine reminded me of biting into a chocolate truffle.
