Description
White Wine: 2018 | Laurent Ponsot | Montrachet Cuvee des Orchidees
Elegant wine. Montrachet Cuvee des Orchidees with this degree of purity to the fruit, with intense notes of white peach and green apple, suffused with hints of mineral and fresh white flowers. The texture is very fresh but not lacking in concentration or body, and the length is impressive.

Reviews:
- Jasper Morris: Beautiful clean pure fruit with a covering of clear white oak and a little toast, the depth comes on the palate with an admirable blend of fruit weight and some citrus style acidity. All in white fruit, still a fine grain despite the intensity of the fruit. Laurent works with a light hand.
Producer Information
After 36 years at Domaine Ponsot, Laurent Ponsot left the family domaine in February of 2017 to pursue a new wine adventure. He is joined in this new endeavor by his son, Clément, whose excitement for winemaking is as strong as his own, while his other two children, Claire and Nicolas, also hold shares in the company. Embodying his pioneering spirit, the company is named after Laurent himself who values humility, respects nature, and enjoys above all else the great pleasure of winemaking. Laurent’s resolute quest for an alliance between history and innovation continues, and he will retain all of the fruits of his past research, such as the perfect closure, élevage without sulfur but under neutral gas, temperature-controlled “intelligent cases”, and the protection of authenticity. Through these innovations, his goal, as always, will be to provide consummate, authentic examples of great Burgundy wines.
