Domaine Ponsot
Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir
Rose petal, dried raspberry and strawberry nose, persimmon remnants, bing cherry, roobios and black teas. Cranberry-apple afterthoughts. Bright and young with juicy attitude. Cranberry and tart cherry entry, rose, tar and smoky jerky. Plums and sage with grape leaf. Waiting for full opening.

A little disappointed with this one, seemed a little disjointed, maybe just in an odd phase right now.

Oct 7th, 20162009 vintage. At Robata restaurant in Tokyo with Gerard Basset MW. Medium ruby hue. Sitting low in the glass - quite reticent at first. Black fruit profile, some leather and Earth. On the palate, very acidic at first, although softened with time. Tannins are chunky. Lacks complexity of a top wine from this excellent vintage. Medium body and alcohol. Short on the finish. Disappointing. Could be in a dumb phase. Don't open until 2021.
