Grand Cru Cuvée du Kalimeris Corton-Charlemagne Driven by a predilection that deems the sum far greater than its individual parts, Laurent Ponsot has blended across plots on this venerated hillside, all Grand Cru, to deliver a masterpiece. The essence of the terroir, as he sees it. Loads of toasted nuts, nougatine and the inflection of lemon oil, yellow plum and lime curd that so often defines the finest Corton-Charlemagne. A confluence of precise mineral vibrato and almost unctuous power, melded as a curvaceous whole of thrilling length. Make no mistake, this should be buried in the cellar.

LAURENT PONSOT 1er Cru Cuvée de la Centaurée , Meursault-Charmes

Like the Latitude, this is 100% Côte des Blancs Chardonnay (the vineyards are in Cramant, Avize, Oger, and Vertus), yet the vineyards from which it was drawn have thinner topsoils and so the vine roots plunge straight into the chalky bedrock. The name here refers to the vertical nature of the geographic locations of the vineyards as well as the style of wine resulting from the very chalky soils of these sites i.e., a more linear, mineral wine. While Larmandiers Latitude is expansive across the palate, the Longitude is all about minerality, line and raciness. William Kelly has called this wine one of the finest non-vintage bottlings to be found in Champagne and, while the are no reviews available for the 2019 base, the high ratio of reserve wines (40%) and the strength of this low-yielding vintage should leave you will little doubt as the quality on offer.

Meursault Genevrières Cuvée de l'Ipomée Meursault Genevrières Cuvée de l'Ipomée is a pale lemon and lime in colour, unveiling a fresh lightness on the nose with a touch of zesty citrus and pear aromatics. The palate displays white ripe fruit with a clean acidity cutting a line neatly throughout. This is a pure wine with an attractive length.

Les Caillerets derives its name from the large number of pebbles ("cailloux") to be found in the local soil, this is white Burgundy at or near- its pinnacle.
