Laurent Ponsot, Cuvee du Sorbier Vintage:2019 lemon and lime notes open(Mountain Ash tree; from a . 28 ha parcel). A mentholated top note is present on the cooler and more restrained nose of various red berries, cinnamon and a pretty array of floral elements. There is fine intensity to the tautly muscular larger scaled flavors that also possess excellent delineation on the sneaky long, balanced and equally tightly wound finale. This is also very good though patience is recommended as this will require time to flesh out.
