About 2005 Ponsot, Domaine Morey St Denis Clos des Monts Luisants White Proprietary Blend
About the Winery Ponsot, Domaine
William Ponsot established the Domaine in 1772 after the Prussian war.
Included in the Domaine’s vineyards are a fine selection of Grand Crus
in Gevrey and Morey. The Ponsots were among the first in Burgundy to
acknowledge the significance of, and to use, clones. Additionally, the
Domaine has provided the mother vines for most of today’s finest
PinotNoir clones. Laurent Ponsot uses as little herbicide as possible
to avoid infecting the soil and developing resistance, and he harvest
late, hoping to benefit from maximum ripeness. Yields are low,
averaging 20-23 hectoliters per hectare (1.14-1.31 tons/acre).
Traditional wine-making methods are utilized; the wine is not filtered,
nor is sulphur used. The handpicked, rot- excised grapes are passed
through a Demoisy crusher-stemmer; the machine also removes any grapes
affected by dry rot. The grapes are mostly destemmed, although a few
stems may be left if deemed necessary. No new oak is used and wines are
fined before bottling. It can be up to 24 months before the wines are
bottled. Clos de la Roche, the Ponsot domaine’s largest holding, is one
of the four fine tete du cuvée vineyards in the little town of Morey-St
Denis. It produces one of the great wines of Burgundy - deeply colored,
spicy, rich and often quite firm. This vineyard, running north from
Morey-St Denis and sharing its border with Latriciéres-Chambertin at
the southern end of the great Chambertin vineyards, is justifiably
noted for wines that age well. “At their finest, Ponsot’s wines are
classic examples of great red burgundy. While rich and accessible
enough to be drunk young, they are capable of lasting 20-30 years,
making Ponsot one of a handful of Burgundy growers committed to making
long-lived wines.” -Robert Parker, Jr. The Wine Advocate
