Tasting notes for Domaine Ponsot Clos de la Roche Vieilles Vignes 2011
To the eye: A deep ruby robe with garnet reflections, dense and silky, betraying a generous substance and a velvety elegance.
On the nose: Aromas of ripe dark fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant) intertwine with notes of violet, damp undergrowth and liquorice, before a chalky mineral touch underscores the complexity.
On the palate: A precise and taut attack, where the lively acidity and firm yet silky tannins envelop a fleshy substance, carried by a saline and persistent finish of remarkable length.
Serve at 16–18°C in a Burgundy glass to release its full aromatic range.
