"The 2011 Clos de la Roche is also stunning chez Ponsot, soaring from the glass in a deep and very sappy blend of red and black cherries, dark chocolate, game, woodsmoke, a beautiful base of soil tones and a topnote of mustard seed. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, complex and sappy at the rock solid core, with ripe, well-integrated tannins, beautiful balance and nascent complexity and a long, opulent finish that shows off superb focus and grip. Another classic Ponsot big boy in the making."
