"All the superb and dramatic complexity that this displayed from barrel has made it into bottle as an extremely ripe and fantastically broad nose soars from the glass, merging seamlessly into dense, pure rich and powerful flavors that are opulent, sweet and dripping with so much extract and sap that the combination stains and saturates the palate on the hugely proportioned yet impeccably balanced finish that is so long that it doesn't seem possible. Given how many reference standard vintages Domaine Ponsot has produced of the Clos de la Roche over the years, it would be presumptuous to anoint this as the best ever but if it isn't, it will certainly take its rightful place among the very greatest. In sum, a 'wow' wine that makes you shake your head in sheer amazement. However be aware that this is a buy and forget wine as it will require at least 15 years to shed its considerable tannins and it will see 50 years without difficulty."

We source wines through a trusted network of collectors, wineries, and distributors. Collections are carefully inspected and often sampled before acquisition to evaluate provenance, condition, and drinkability.

Prior to being offered for sale, bottles are reviewed for fill level, label condition, capsule integrity, and overall presentation. All inventory is stored in our professionally managed, temperature-controlled cellar.
