Peter Maude Fine Wines
2021, Domaine Ponsot, GEVREY-CHAMBERTIN, 'Cuvée de l'Abeille'
$198
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Cuvée de l'Abeille opens in the glass with aromas of sweet red petals, peonies and cherry pit. Medium-bodied, satiny and melting, it's a pure, elegant wine that will drink well young. 88-89 William Kelley, Wine Advocate (2023).
Just racked. A fine light to mid purple. The bouquet is not giving much. Healthy grapes here from a normal yield. Fresh and vibrant fruit, a raspberry touch with a little cherry behind, a good thread of acidity and some length. Attractive and well balanced with some length, a good result for young vines planted in 2014. **** 89-91 Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy (2022).
