Goedhuis, December 2012
Light lime green colour, this is an appealing mix between vibrant citrus fruits and hints of hazelnuts and almonds. A pure and vibrant wine, with gentle pear drop flavours, crisp clean and lively on the finish.

Burghound, June 2013, Score: 89-91
A fresh and exceptionally spicy nose speaks of citrus and pear before introducing textured and solidly well-concentrated mineral-inflected flavors that possess plenty of energy on the notably dry, clean and mouth coating finish. Drink 2017+

Jancis Robinson, January 2013, Score: 16.5
Pale gold. Exotic spicy notes. Then great tension and tingle. A hint of fructose. Lively and most distinctive but rarely worth the price alas! Citrus peel. Drink 2015-2020

Domaine Ponsot is an atypical but outstanding domaine in Morey St Denis. Their combination of late picking, destemming, and ageing in old oak barrels achieve the domaine’s distinctive style of long-lived wines. Laurent Ponsot left the domaine in 2017, and the estate is now run by his sister, Rose Marie Ponsot. Alexandre Abel has joined the team as régisseur, and together they continue to uphold these three principles of the estate. Furthermore, they are not afraid to experiment, and are always evolving the viticulture and winemaking style with small innovations. The estate has eschewed the fashion of using new oak barrels to age the wines, preferring seasoned casks which act as an “elevage” vessel rather than imparting barrel flavours. As Alexandre says “we want our wines to taste the maximum of the true fruit and terroir flavours that nature provides us with".Read less

Morey Saint Denis
Morey St. Dénis often suffers from an identity crisis. They are more fruit forward than the wines of Gevrey Chambertin, yet more structured than those of Chambolle Musigny. It seems in this sensethat they are like middle children, always wanting to please yet not standing out as the noisy one or the notably quiet one. They are however crowd pleasers and for those who feel that Gevreys are too muscular and Chambolles too feminine; Moreys seem just right, offering velvety tannins and tangible fruit. The village offers five grand cru vineyards including Clos de la Roche, Clos St. Dénis and Clos des Lambrays which nonetheless can rival those of neighbouring villages in terms of quality (some even view them as the best in the Côte de Nuits) and various premier cru vineyards.
