515 Pommard

Pommard beliggende rett syd for Beaune i Burgund lager gjerne en fyldigere og mer kjøttfull stil. Vinmarkene har en rekke soleksponeringer, mot nord, mot sør og alle aspekter i mellom disse to mot øst, samt delvis mot vest lengst inne i dalen som strekker seg vestover fra landsbyen Pommard. Første klassifisering i 1860, men i 1936 først ble AOC Pommard etablert. Gjennomsnittstemperaturen i pommard gjennom et år er rundt 10,5 grader. 90.000 flasker Pommard 1er Cru lages per år.

Rugiens er i dag 1er Cru men man prøver å få godkjent vinmarken(e) som Grand Cru. Man forsøker det samme på nordsiden av Pommard med deler av Epenotsvinmarkene. En av grunnene til at det ikke er Grand Cru allerede i Pommard, var at negociantene i området ikke ønsket dette i 1936 av frykt for høye priser på druene/vinene de skulle kjøpe. Selv om vinene de senere årene har blitt lettere, mer florale og brilliante i utrykket, her som i resten av Burgund, har man fortsatt en tydelig struktur og tydelige tanniner.
