Full-bodied, firm and muscular, with lively underpinning acids, this is a chewy, broad-shouldered wine that's promising, but it will require patience. This derives from one parcel in the lieu-dit Petit Maupertuis and another located below the Château de Latour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDomaine Ponsot began their harvest in the Côte de Nuits on September 6, concluding six days later, and winemaker Alexandre Abel opted to extract gently, as color and tannin came rapidly this year. The wines have turned out very well, cut from very different cloth than the immensely charming 2017s—which are revisited from bottle here. Though alcohols are not especially extreme, ranging from 13.6% to 14.1%, the 2018s chez Ponsot are muscular and structured, built for the long haul, but they remain very much faithful to both the domaine's style and its terroirs. So, congratulations are due to Alexandre Able and Rose-Marie Ponsot on another very successful vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style='box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0; font-style: italic; font-family: \"Libre Franklin\", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; text-align: left; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); background-color: rgba(250, 250, 250, 1)'\u003e\u003cspan style='font-family: \"Calibri Light\", \"Helvetica Light\", sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 1)'\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Wine Clique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55324413657256,"sku":"BGD01190169","price":496.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/3316\/6248\/files\/BC_Upload_3d05f958-0b29-41f6-b650-a0a50e3e37f0.png?v=1773293664","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-clique.com\/products\/ponsot-clos-de-vougeot-cuvee-vv-2018","provider":"Wine Clique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
