Domaine Ponsot - Saint-Romain 'Cuvée de la Mésange' 2018

IN STOCK

Domaine Ponsot’s history begins in 1872 when William Ponsot purchased a wine estate in Morey-Saint-Denis and set up his home there. His major parcels of land at that time were the Clos des Monts-Luisants and Clos de la Roche. His nephew and godson, Hippolyte Ponsot, took over the domaine in 1920, and in 1932 started bottling his entire harvest at the domaine, a rarity for the time. Eventually the estate was passed down to Hippolyte’s son Jean-Marie, and later to Jean-Marie’s children, Laurent and Rose-Marie. Today, Rose-Marie Ponsot is the sole director of the company, seconded by Alexandre Abel. Unfettered by the latest fashions, Domaine Ponsot has always sought to express the richness of Burgundy terroir through natural cultivation practices. Human intervention is limited and only applied to the help that the vine needs. The family’s long tradition of letting nature take the lead work that today the vineyards are in exceptional condition.

White pale gold with green highlights. On the nose, the whole range of lime trees, white flowers, with some mineral accents. It offers in the mouth a good minerality that time rounds off revealing a good mellowness.

The minerality makes it the friend of delicate fish, pan-fried or even better on steam. Omelets and poached eggs, freshly seared vegetables or marinated also appreciate them very much. Also great with cheeses with a soft paste like Camembert, whose creamy texture will be good balanced by the slightly mineral acidity of this beautiful wine.
