Ponsot Bourgogne Rouge Cuvée de Passon 2017

Red

WineSaint

Compressed and mineral-focused, with graphite and cassis driving the aromatics. The palate shows restraint, favoring structure over fruit richness. Dark berries emerge with hints of crushed herbs, but the wine feels somewhat lean for Ponsot's standards. Clean and correct, though missing the usual depth.

Ponsot is one of Gevrey-Chambertin's most storied domaines, long associated with old-vine Clos de la Roche and a fiercely uncompromising approach to both viticulture and cellar work.
