This is old-school Pommard from one of the village's most stubbornly traditional addresses. Domaine Billard-Gonnet traces its roots to 1766, and Philippe Billard still farms a patchwork of Pommard premiers crus the way his family always has: open-vat fermentation, hand punch-downs, and no fining or filtering. Chaponnieres is a structured, muscular site, and this old-vines bottling is built for the long haul. At a dozen-plus years on, the 2012 is settling into its mature stride. A sturdy vintage that rewarded patience.
