2016 Laurent Ponsot Blagny Cuvée du Myosotis Meursault 1er Cru Blanc 750ml

2016 Laurent Ponsot Cuvée du Myosotis: Meursault Premier Cru Tension

The 2016 Laurent Ponsot Cuvée du Myosotis Meursault-Blagny Premier Cru Blanc 750ml captures the thrilling mineral energy of high-altitude Burgundy. In particular, the Blagny climat perches high above Meursault on steep limestone terraces where cool breezes preserve vibrant natural acidity. In addition, the classic 2016 vintage produced Chardonnays of extraordinary cut, aromatic purity, and textural depth.

Tasting Notes for 2016 Laurent Ponsot Cuvée du Myosotis

The wine opens with pure aromas of green apple, lemon blossom, crushed flint, and white peach. Furthermore, subtle accents of wet limestone, fresh hazelnut, and sea spray unfold in the glass. On the palate, a racy line of acidity cuts cleanly through a silky, concentrated mid-palate. Consequently, the finish lingers with mouthwatering saline tension, stony grip, and lasting poise.
