Laurent Ponsot Chambertin Grand Cru Cuvee du Chene 2019

A relatively reticent nose is comprised by notes of warm earth

As pretty as this is on the nose and mid-palate

There is almost painful intensity to the super-sleek big-bodied flavors that possess a positively gorgeous mouthfeel due to a mid-palate that brims with sappy dry extract that coats the mouth on the hugely long and impeccably well-balanced finale

This is easily the freshest wine to this point with its splendidly complex aromas of mostly red currant

all of which is trimmed in just enough wood to notice

Near black in color with saturated ruby and vermillion nuances

and new oak

An expressive and notably more elegant than usual nose offers up notes of various red berries

The wines from the extremely hot drought year

The saturated purple/black color is followed by aromas of sweet vanillin intermixed with riveting scents of black currants

A discreet touch of wood frames the impressively complex plum

indeed this could aptly be described as a wine that delivers power without weight
