Reviews of 2006 Ponsot, Domaine Morey St Denis Clos des Monts Luisants Vieilles Vignes White Proprietary Blend
Burghound July 2008 A ripe, pretty and spicy green fruit nose leads to textured, sweet and seriously intense flavors underpinned by firm acidity and evident minerality, all wrapped in a linear, long and precise finish. Impressive if not overly complex at present yet this wine always requires time in bottle to deepen as well as flesh out.
92-93 points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate December 2008 Laurent Ponsot’s five barrels of 2006 Morey-St.-Denis Mont Luisants tasted for a second time this spring after assembly for bottling represent a return to the 100% Aligote that his great grandfather had planted in 1911, an act which, Ponsot insists, followed a then long-standing tradition of planting that grape in especially chalky and/or nosebleed sectors of the Cote de Nuits.
Nectarine, apricot, fresh lime, and iris inform this wine’s effusive bouquet, and a patisserie-like overlay of yeast and vanilla offers lovely counterpoint; speaking of which, a subtly tart fruit skin and citrus zest note I associate with this unjustly maligned grape runs throughout. The interchange of mineral and bright citrus and pit fruit on display here – yet accompanied by a plush texture – is reminiscent of Riesling, and there is a depth of flavor and a richness beneath the wine’s ripe, juicy acidity that promise at least a decade’s worth of fascinating further evolution.
