Cherry. Touches of red and black raspberry. Earth, spice, and a touch of tar. Nice acidity and finish. Very enjoyable, and maybe best on day 2, or at least after several hours open.

First one of a few remaining in the cellar. Surprised by the lighter style of this wine, which is not what I associate with Ponsot. Red fruits- cherry, strawberry with sous bois notes; nice acid balance and modest tannins made for a lovely glass of PN. In very good shape and can go a longer distance.
