The idea behind this wine is to create an aromatic fruity wine with old world character

before whirling into baking spices

earthy oakiness and lush citrus notes

Laurent Ponsot Bourgogne Rouge 2016 Bottle:1 The idea behind this wineIts a delightfully pretty, red fruited Burgundy, fleshy though not at all heavy with a juicy, moreish personality and a long finish with hints of forest floor. The silky texture and overall quality for the level is glorious. A peuplier is a poplar tree. On the palate the wine is deep, full bodied and quite succulent out of the blocks, with a good core, fine focus and grip and a long, tangy finish. This is really, really good Bourgogne rouge!
