A deeply pitched and fresh nose that is equally reticent speaks of cassis and dark cherry fruit and intensely earthy and stony aromas of underbrush, humus and something I can only describe as just cut tree roots that complements the rich, serious and impressively concentrated big-bodied flavors that are underpinned by a strong mineral streak on the structured and palate staining finish. 92-94 Points\/Drink 2023+\" - Allen Meadows, Burghound\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout This Wine\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Chambertin Grand Cru from Domaine Ponsot is crafted with meticulous fruit handling. Grapes are hand-picked into wicker baskets, transferred into small crates no heavier than 17 kg to preserve berry integrity, and sorted manually in the vineyard with multiple layers of selection if needed. The domaine does not fine or filter and uses very little sulphur, limiting oxygen exposure throughout élevage. Ageing occurs for two years in oak barrels, with no new barrels used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout the Winery\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDomaine Ponsot, led by Laurent Ponsot, follows a philosophy of minimal intervention, avoiding new oak, fining and filtration. Racking and bottling take place under a waning moon and high atmospheric pressure, and inert gases are used to prevent oxygen exposure. SO₂ is applied only at crushing, disappearing almost entirely during fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage: 2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrape Variety: Pinot Noir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: Chambertin \/ Gevrey-Chambertin \/ Côte de Nuits \/ Burgundy \/ France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction Attributes: Unfiltered, Unfined\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaturation: Oaked (no new barrels)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwnership: Laurent Ponsot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosure: Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrinking Window: 2010–2030\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52736087949675,"sku":"SK21734462","price":1499.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5483\/8635\/files\/2008DomainePonsotChambertinGrandCru750ml.png?v=1780389920","url":"https:\/\/kingsburycellars.com.au\/products\/2008-domaine-ponsot-chambertin-grand-cru-750ml","provider":"Kingsbury Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
