Ponsot, Clos de la Roche Cuvee, Vieilles Vignes 2013 Grenache Finishes extremely long and pure96 points Wine Advocate The 2013 Clos de la Roche Cuve Vieilles Vignes, from vines planted in 1905, has an inviting, delineated bouquet with vibrant wild strawberry, raspberry preserve and mineral notes. The palate has great tension so suave and poised with superb symmetry and an effortless finish that I dont think the Clos Saint Denis has at the moment. Laurent Ponsot did not disguise his enthusiasm for this Grand Cru and I could understand why. (NM)
