Pommard produces some of most powerful and sturdy wines from the Côte de Beaune. Nicolas Rossignols Les Vignots shows great typicity, displaying superb depth of dark cherry fruit and firm graphite-like tannins lending the wine superb structure and longevity.

Bouchard Père et Fils, who have owned vineyards here since 1791, today own 2.32 hectares of this 9.39ha premier cru vineyard located at the most northern end of Beaune, right near the Savigny Les Beaune vineyard of the same name. This always well priced wine is typically medium bodied with discreet wood and can be enjoyed young.

Nicolas Rossignols 1er Cru Chevrets is denser and richer than many other Volnay wines, yet still displays the fine tannins and lightness of touch for which Volnay is renowned. Chevret may be a local word for creux or hollow and fittingly the vineyard is anchored on brown clay-limestone just below the premier cru of Cailleret.
