"An amazing wine in every sense, this classic, full-bodied Pauillac is the quintessential Pontet Canet...offers up notes of incense, graphite, smoke, licorice, creme de cassis and blackberries. A wine of irrefutable purity, laser-like precision, colossal weight and richness, and sensational freshness...The tannins are elevated, but they are sweet and beautifully integrated as are the acidity, wood and alcohol...Maturity: 2025-2075." 100 Points, Wine Advocate

Chateau Pontet-Canet Description

Pontet-Canet has always been a legendary Medoc. It is deep ruby-red, crimson, and sometimes almost black colour and has a characteristic bouquet of black fruit (especially blackcurrant), liquorice, and prune as well as fig, cedar, and sometimes cocoa overtones. Pontet-Canet combines power and elegance, as well as concentration and fullness on the palate. Rather sinewy in style, Pontet-Canet is clearly a classical wine with a tannic structure that provides excellent ageing potential. The chateau team is conscious of the fact that they are following in the footsteps of more than three centuries of tradition, with each period contributing its technical innovations in the interest of quality and in order faithfully to reflect the terroir.
