Laurent Ponsot Bourgogne ‘’Cuvee des Peupliers‘’ 2019
93 pts Decanter:
Concentrated and forward, this is produced from a blend of grapes from the domaine's own vineyards and purchased fruit, mostly sourced in the Côte de Nuits. The result is quite successful, with bright, fresh, high-toned pomegranate and cherry aromas, plus a svelte purity on the palate that is not lacking a pleasant substance.
89 pts Allen Meadows, Burghound:
A riper and very fresh nose speaks mostly of red berries and earth where the latter element is picked up by the sleek delicious and vibrant middle weight flavors that flash good detail on the nicely complex, persistent and only mildly rustic finish. This is worth a look. Burghound Outstanding!
89 pts Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy:
"Attractive mid crimson, Very appealing fresh pinot notes, with some structure behind. The barrel has been well used here. Not an immediate wine but this should develop very well over three
to five years." (10/2020)
2017年,時年60歲的Laurent Ponsot毅然決然離開家族酒莊Domaine Ponsot,與長子Clément展開人生新頁,將保留在自己名下的3公頃葡萄園與酒商業務組合在一起,創立了同名品牌,目前Clément的妻子Claude以及兩個孩子Claire以及Nicolas也都成為酒莊的合夥人。知名葡萄酒評論網站《Winehog》作者Steen Öhman曾經表示:「在我看來,他的葡萄酒具有相當獨特的風格和特殊的品質,很難被新的釀酒師所複製。」
Laurent的新酒莊設立於Vougeot產區的Gilly-lès-Cîteaux村,致力於忠實呈現風土特色,降低人為干預,釀造出理想中的布根地”Haute Couture Wines”(高級訂製酒)。Laurent由衷希望釀造出人們「願意喝、喜歡喝的酒」。同時他也強調:「我的酒要給真正懂的人喝,而不是有一半的酒永遠不會被打開。」2019年,Laurent Ponsot在Gevrey和Chambolle村中買下了4公頃的土地,新的產品中包含了Bonnes-Mares特級園酒款。
