Vinous Tasting Note

The 2021 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru is very pure and perfumed, macerated red cherries, wild strawberry, kirsch and rose petal scents, an underlying mineralité that will become more conspicuous with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, quite firm tannins (more like a Mazis?) leading to a sapid, slightly peppery finish that lingers. Needs to knit together but great potential.

About the Producer

About the Producer

Domaine Ponsot, a Burgundian institution firmly rooted in Morey-Saint-Denis, where family history has been written for several generations. Founded in 1872, this estate has left its mark on the history of Burgundy wines. Today, driven by a passionate figure, Domaine Ponsot continues to elevate this exceptional terroir of the Côte de Nuits. Its wines are distinguished by a style that is both profound and mineral, a vibrant expression of the terroirs from which they originate. Among the flagship cuvées, we find the famous Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Cuvée Vieilles Vignes, an absolute benchmark, as well as the rare Clos des Monts Luisants Vieilles Vignes. The estate also excels in its interpretations of Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru and Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru. It is said that the Ponsot family was among the first to bottle its entire production at the estate, a bold practice for the time. The Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru and the Morey-Saint-Denis Premier Cru Cuvée des Alouettes complete this prestigious range, a reflection of the house's unique expertise. An essential signature. Among the most sought-after cuvées are Domaine Ponsot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru 'Cuvée Vieilles Vignes', Domaine Ponsot Clos des Monts Luisants Vieilles Vignes, and Domaine Ponsot Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru, useful benchmarks for understanding the identity of the house.
