The Winery

Domaine Ponsot

Domaine Ponsot is one of the most revered and historic producers in all of Burgundy. In the hands of the Ponsot family since 1872, they were one of the first Domaines to understand and use the importance of clones and clonal selections.

Today, the domaine continues to be under the control of the Ponsot family who grows their grapes using a non-interventionist philosophy, which expresses these terroir driven wines to the fullest extent. The winemaking soul and masterwork has garnered the mantra of a legend from wine critics all over the world due to their successful methods.

Tasting Notes

WA96
The 1999 Clos de la Roche Vieille Vignes is one of Laurent’s best wines from this hallowed vineyard. It has a generous bouquet that, as I commented before, does not mess about, almost hugging the olfactory senses and begging to be loved. It swarms with cranberry and raspberry scents, and continues to emit something almost Tuscan, but here with a little more mineralite. The palate is medium-bodied, sweet and round, lithe in the mouth with very wonderful persistency. Rubenesque! Tasted November 2013.
