character-filled effort made from Rostaings Languedoc-Roussillon vineyards

totally beguiling personality

underbrush and a touch of the sauvage that continues onto the supple

000-liter Rousseau foudre

It's a full-bodied wine to age in in bottle and enjoy in its 10th birthday with powerful food

Domaine Ponsot, Corton Bourdon Vintage:2011 character-filled effort made from Rostaings(a bourdon is a bumblebee). A markedly earthy nose features notes of very ripe dark currant, game and leather hints. Here too there is a lovely sense of energy and punch to the muscular but not really rustic broad shouldered flavors that also possess very good if not sensational mid palate concentration before culminating in a balanced and palate coating finish.
