Austere and bretty at first but after a bit of air it broadened out and turned into a beautiful glass of Pinot.

Takes a few hours to open up but when it does it's pretty tart, mineral but good

I'm always so drawn to these "lesser" wines from great estates. Not just because they're cheaper, but because they're not burdened by the expectations surrounding them. This was stellar. Pure red Gevrey fruit, surrounded by this shimmering coil of red flowers, rhubarb, exotic mushrooms, and middle eastern spices. Floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee.

Someone once said Bordeaux is for thinking and Burgundy is for sex, this wine proves just that! #ponsot #burgundy #wine

Beautiful blast of violets and ripe red cherry and rhubarb. Well structured with acid singing through secondary notes. A very pretty red burgundy.

Really nice spot. Greatly benefited by some air in glass after 30.
