Domaine Ponsot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 2005 is a Pinot Noir from the Morey-Saint-Denis district of the Côte de Nuits, bottled in a magnum. This wine is produced from vines that are up to 100 years old, situated on a thin layer of soil over hard limestone. The 2005 vintage is a classic in Burgundy, delivering wines with high structural integrity and immense aromatic purity. The nose is deep and concentrated, showing notes of wild raspberries, truffles, leather and a distinct earthy minerality. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and vertical, with a dense tannic structure and a vibrant acidity. It is a profound, long-lived Grand Cru with an extraordinary, resonant finish.
