Arnoux-Lachaux 2012 "'. . . the low crop load [in 2012] allowed the fruit to attain an excellent level of phenolic maturity. It was this high level of phenolic maturity that persuaded me to use a whole cluster approach to our vinifications and I'm very happy that I did as the wines have energy and a certain sweetness that makes them appealing, at least to my taste.' I have to agree with Charles that his approach worked exceptionally well." - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com |

Domaine Ponsot 2011 "As is Laurent Ponsot’s wont, he harvested much later in 2011 than any of his neighbors, with the harvest starting here on September 15th and the last grapes brought in at the start of October . . . . The very old Aligoté vines in Monts Luisants celebrated their 100th anniversary in this vintage, having been planted in 1911, and I am sure that Laurent Ponsot will have some sort of commemorative label prepared to celebrate this milestone for the wine - which is indeed outstanding in this vintage . . . . what we did taste was very, very fine . . . as Monsieur Ponsot’s late harvesting has certainly produced some opulent and sappy wines that are quite impressive. I really enjoyed the tanginess that many of these wines displayed, despite their opulent, later-harvested fruit tones . . . . This is a very, very impressive range of 2011s in the classic Ponsot style." - John Gilman, View From the Cellar

Domaine Ponsot 2012 "Laurent Ponsot has made stellar 2012s, with a sumptuousness and opulence that are so typical of his greatest vintages. As is his wont, he began harvesting quite a bit later than all of his neighbors in Morey St. Denis, with picking commencing in his Côte de Nuits parcels around October 2nd or 3rd of 2012 . . . . there is little doubt that fans of this great estate are going to be absolutely ecstatic with the quality and style of these monumental 2012s." - John Gilman, View From the Cellar |
