Overview

The Meursault Blagny Premier Cru “Cuvée du Myosotis” 2022 is a Chardonnay that embodies the true spirit of Meursault, combining elegance, freshness, and depth. The 2022 vintage, marked by balanced climatic conditions, delivered healthy, concentrated grapes, resulting in a harmonious and long-lived white wine. This cuvée takes its name from the Myosotis flower, symbolizing delicacy and memory, perfectly reflecting Laurent Ponsot’s winemaking philosophy. Contains sulfites.

History of the wine

The Blagny climat, located between Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet, has long been renowned for producing white wines of great character and complexity. The “Cuvée du Myosotis” was created to unite tradition and creativity, offering a wine that honors the terroir while reflecting the innovative vision of the Ponsot family. The 2022 vintage showcases a unique balance between aromatic richness and mineral freshness, characteristic of the finest Premier Crus of the Côte de Beaune.

Vineyard philosophy & cellar approach

The vines are cultivated without synthetic chemicals, preserving natural cycles and biodiversity. Grapes are hand-harvested with strict selection. In the cellar, spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts is followed by aging in French oak barrels, partly new, which enhances aromatic complexity and balances freshness with structure. Laurent and Clément Ponsot follow a philosophy rooted in precision and authenticity.

Laurent Ponsot

The History of Laurent Ponsot

In 2017, Laurent Ponsot, after leaving the historic Domaine Ponsot, embarked on a new adventure by founding his own winery together with his son Clément and a carefully chosen team. Based in Gilly-Lès-Cîteaux, in the heart of Burgundy, the estate stands at the crossroads of tradition and innovation. The project is both a Domaine, with 7 hectares of vineyards in prestigious areas, and a Maison de Négoce, selecting top-quality grapes to craft refined cuvées. With more than 26 Burgundy appellations produced, this new chapter quickly became a global benchmark, thanks to Laurent’s modern vision and meticulous attention to detail.

Vineyard Philosophy

The vineyard philosophy at Laurent Ponsot is guided by respect for nature and the pursuit of the purest expression of terroir. The vines are farmed without systemic chemicals, following sustainable practices that preserve soil vitality and guarantee plant balance. Yet, Laurent embraces modern techniques when necessary, always prioritizing vine health and grape quality. This pragmatic vision, deeply rooted in Burgundy’s microclimates, results in fruit that authentically conveys the land’s identity with clarity and precision, vintage after vintage.

Approach in the Cellar

Winemaking at Laurent Ponsot can be described as haute couture enology. Constant technological innovations are introduced, such as the ArdeaSeal closure replacing traditional cork, which protects wines from premature oxidation and cork taint, ensuring long-term integrity. Neutral gas is used instead of sulfur during aging, reducing intervention and preserving purity. Every step is meticulously monitored: from temperature control of cases to authenticity codes protecting against counterfeits. This precision guarantees bottles that reach consumers in flawless condition, faithfully expressing their origin.

Vision and Innovation

Laurent Ponsot embodies creativity and avant-garde spirit. The estate stands out with innovative packaging, surprising bottle designs, and modern labels, diverging from Burgundy’s classic aesthetic. The use of recycled materials highlights a commitment to sustainability, while bold stylistic choices showcase a strong identity in a competitive landscape. This vision, blending research and imagination, drives a unique project where wine is crafted as a tailor-made creation, designed to last and inspire. Each cuvée reflects a journey from soil to bottle, expressing passion, innovation, and respect for the terroir.
