Laurent Ponsot Cuvée de l’Aulne Gevrey-Chambertin 2020

Description

A cooler and beautifully pure nose is comprised by fruit that derives mostly from the red side of the spectrum with additional nuances of earth and a whiff of the sauvage. There is unusually good refinement for a villages Gevrey as the delicious and vibrant medium-bodied flavors are shaped by fine-grained tannins while displaying excellent length on the youthfully austere finale. This is really good for its level and once again, worth checking out. Drink: 2028+. Outstanding. Score – 91. (Allen Meadows, burghound.com, Jan. 10, 2023)
