Domaine Ponsot, Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2013

Bottle Size: 75cl

Region: France: Burgundy Red

Colour: Red

Style: Still

Grape Variety: Pinot Noir

The 2013 Clos de la Roche Cuvée Vieilles Vignes, from vines planted in 1905, has an inviting, delineated bouquet with vibrant wild strawberry, raspberry preserve and mineral notes. The palate has great tension – so suave and poised with superb symmetry and an effortless finish that I don’t think the Clos Saint Denis has at the moment. Laurent Ponsot did not disguise his enthusiasm for this Grand Cru and I could understand why. Tasted December 2014, Robert Parker (95-97) Points Neal Martin
