Ponsot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes 2013

Ponsot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes 2013This is also absolutely stunning in every respect and displays a kaleidoscopic combination that is not quite as spicy as the Clos St. Denis though it is earthier and almost as complex. It is immediately clear that this is a bigger and more powerful wine that possesses outstanding mid palate density and a huge reserve of dry extract that imparts a seductive mouth feel and mostly buffers the exceptionally firm tannic spine on the massively long finish.

this is a sensational tour de force and a great tribute to this spectacular hillside site on Pritchard Hill

this is a big step up on the 2014

mostly Touriga Franca

Offering less obvious pleasure

pure and notably more sauvage nose of both red and dark wild berry and earth scents

The wine is rich

but the sweetness and taste of this wine's fruit is akin to a savory blend of a chocolate-covered

like its two siblings
