Pommard is a red-wine village in Burgundy's Côte de Beaune, long regarded as one of the appellation's firmest and most structured expressions of Pinot Noir. WineFortune tracks 5 wines here from 5 producers, among them Hospices de Beaune, Leroy and de Montille; 4 of the tracked wines carry Premier Cru status and all are AOP.

The grape is Pinot Noir alone, and the wines are still reds. Pommard's clay-rich, iron-tinged soils give darker fruit, firmer tannin and more grip than most of its neighbours, which is why the village has a reputation for wines that reward patience. There are no Grand Cru vineyards; the finest sites are Premier Cru climats such as Les Rugiens and Les Epenots.

On pricing, one Hospices de Beaune cuvée currently sits on the WineFortune index at a median of €220 per 75 cl bottle, built from WineFortune's own trades and listings over 90 days. A village-level index median is not published at present.
