Producer's description
Domain Ponce was founded in 1872, when William Ponce, who returned from the Franco-Prussian War, bought a house and several vineyards in Morey-Saint-Denis. Gradually expanding, William buys plots in Clos de la Roche and Clos des Monts-Luisants, where in 1911 disembarks Aligote. Aliquot landing was unusual at the time, most manufacturers of white wines in Burgundy inclined to a more economical and sustainable Chardonnay. William also acquires sites in the vineyards "Les Combottes" and "Les Charmes" appellasone in Gevrey-Chambertin. William produced a small amount of wine, mainly for private use and for casual dining. In 1920, the domain management Ponce goes to his nephew and godson, William - diplomat Hippolyte Ponce. With the help of his brother Henry Ponce, also a diplomat (Resident General in Morocco, the French ambassador in several countries), Hippolyte significantly increases the size of the vineyards at the Clos de la Roche.
