Tuesday, May 15, 2018 - Ponsot Tasting with Alexandre Abel (Chicago, IL): Can it be? A 2005 that's ready to drink? A very nice nose with a good balance of fruit and earth, and a nice touch of iron as well. The palate is very similar, but there's a generosity of fruit here that's unexpected right now. To balance that is a little bit of mushroom, which I imagine will grow in prominence as this ages, and a reasonable bit of acidity. The tannins are still fine-grained, and this is definitely a wine with large structure, but to someone like me who prefers wines on the slightly younger side, this is ready to go.
