Here the nose offers a big step up in aromatic complexity as the cranberry and liqueur of red raspberry suffused aromas possess a myriad of interesting nuances that continue onto the earthy and intensely stony, rich, full and palate staining medium weight plus flavors that are solidly concentrated and culminate in a balanced and textured finish.

The Ponsot 2007 Morey-St.-Denis 1er Cru Cuvee des Alouettes generates dark berry fruit and soy like savor strikingly distinct from the character of its Chambolle siblings. Teak, wood ear mushroom, and smoky animal fat notes lend fascination to the nose and a glycerin-rich, slick, yet persistently sappy palate. There is an invigoratingly tart edge to this that you might anticipate from 2008, but certainly not 2007. Expect it to intrigue your imagination; invigorate your palate; and milk your salivary glands for at least the next 10-12 years. -David Schildknecht
