“(a Centaurée is a cornflower). Citrus and petrol-suffused aromas include those of grilled nuts, brown butter, poached pear and a discreet application of wood influence. The caressing and seductive medium-bodied flavors possess a lovely texture that carries over to the punchy and solidly persistent finish where the only nit is a similar touch of warmth. This bone-dry effort is lovely and worth your interest. 2027+”

“Six suppliers here too. Softer and richer fruit compared to Meursault Blagny, no surprise there, fills out the palate very nicely, a little vanilla touch, a certain warmth from the sunshine of 2019, fair length.”

“Citrus suffused aromas include those of grilled nuts, brown butter, poached pear and a discreet application of wood influence. Here too the caressing and seductive medium-bodied flavors possess a lovely texture that carries over to the punchy and vibrant finish where the only nit is a touch of warmth.”
About The Winery
After 36 years at Domaine Ponsot, Laurent Ponsot left the family domaine in February of 2017 to pursue a new wine adventure. He is joined in this new endeavor by his son, Clément, whose excitement for winemaking is as strong as his own, while his other two children, Claire and Nicolas, also hold shares in the company. Embodying his pioneering spirit, the company is named after Laurent himself who values humility, respects nature, and enjoys above all else the great pleasure of winemaking. Laurent's resolute quest for an alliance between history and innovation continues, and he will retain all of the fruits of his past research, such as the perfect closure, élevage without sulfur but under neutral gas, temperature-controlled 'intelligent cases', and the protection of authenticity. Through these innovations, his goal, as always, will be to provide consummate, authentic examples of great Burgundy wines.
