Ponsot Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru 2018

Red
Gevrey-Chambertin, France
7.6
WineSaint

Dark cherry and crushed violets emerge with mineral precision. Fleshy mid-palate shows generous fruit, though some VA intrudes as it opens. The structure is classic Grand Cru. Firm tannins wrapped in silky texture. Needs a few years to integrate.

Ponsot

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.
