Domaine Ponsot Griotte-Chambertin 2005 is a Grand Cru Pinot Noir from the Gevrey-Chambertin commune in the Côte de Nuits. This wine possesses an opulent texture and exuberant fruit, balancing the natural power of the vintage with impressive clarity. It delivers a concentrated mélange of black cherry, plum and redcurrant, accented by complex notes of liquorice, nutmeg and grilled meats. Matured in old oak and vinified with minimal sulphur, the wine has developed a velvety mouthfeel and remarkable persistence over two decades. Now at its peak maturity, it exhibits a dramatic intensity coupled with refined, chalky minerality.

94 Robert Parker

Ponsot’s 2005 Griottes-Chambertin displays a wonderful depth and clarity of fruit and tactile pungency of spice, with black and red cherry seasoned by nutmeg, cinnamon, and cardamom. This finishes with exuberance and a sheer juiciness that is not the forte of most of Ponsot’s wines. Chalky minerality and bouillon-like meaty richness also emerge in the end. - David Schildknecht

92 Vinous

Good ruby-red. Sappy, liqueur-like aromas of griotte cherry and black raspberry. Wonderfully intense and concentrated, with a nearly confectionery sweetness to its explosive fruit flavors. Like the Cuvee des Alouettes, this comes across as a bit high-toned and will require careful attention during its final months of elevage But offers great potential.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2007

Domaine Ponsot

Burgundian Pioneers

An estate that looms large in the mythology of Burgundy. Domaine Ponsot were early adopters of the practice of estate-bottling in the 1930s and also pioneered research into clonal selection - a key aspect of modern viticulture. Up until 2017, the domaine was under the stewardship of Laurent Ponsot, who did much to promote his family's wines. Laurent took what he saw as the best of organic and biodynamic practices without ever pursuing formal certification. On paper, the approach in the winery seems almost spartan - no sorting table at the cellar, fermentation is proceeds according to the whims of the native yeasts, absolutely no new wood is used during maturation and bottling takes place in line with a particular lunar phase.

While this approach might seem esoteric, the high quality of the wines and the praise they receive is universal. The Grand Cru wines are some of the finest in the Côte d'Or - concentrated, powerful and intense, all made with fruit from 50+ year vines. While Laurent may have moved on, his sister Rose-Marie has continued to maintain quality as sole proprietor of Domaine Ponsot.
