Amazing stuff. Blackberries, herbs, hint of iron, lifted acidity, broody aromas. Beautiful wine with persistency, texture and personality of a grand cru. — 9 months ago

Fourth of four 90 Ponsot bottles served blind for the boyz. A rather rare bottle I’ve learned since Ponsot stopped making it in 93. Tawny color, translucent. High-pitched nose. Notes of bing cherries, flowers, Asian spice, plums and some meaty thing like beef jerky. Linear and angular in this mouth feel. Great balance of fruit and structure. Tannins fully integrated. This is really really good. (Bday 9 of 12) — 3 years ago
Night 1 of WineBoyz Wineapalooza. Tasted blind. Dark red, almost opaque. High-pitched nose with notes of red maraschino cherries, dark fruit, some earth, some mahogany. Big core of fruit, seems to be from a warm vintage and has some age. Lots of debate about this wine. One person thinks it's Italian, another thinks it might be Syrah. I'm in Burgundy and guess 90 Ponsot CdlR. Interesting when the reveal happens. Bottle is a leaker, looked a bit beat up. I had a bottle of this two weeks ago which was more inspiring and in much better condition. Still, very nice… — 3 years ago
Third 90 Ponsot bottle served blind. This is bright tawny and translucent. When compared to the CSD served before it, this is more masculine with a dark cherry nose that is tight for the first 4-5 hours. By the time it’s served, though, it’s opened up and comes on as a rich and very powerful glass of juice. In addition to the regular notes of bing cherry, dark earth and rhubarb, this adds some mocha and a little cherry cola as well. Has a Rousseau-like precision in its delivery. From where it started to where it ended ~9 hours after opening, this evolved and improved the most. Great experience! (Bday 8 of 12) — 3 years ago
