Cellar Tracker June - 2024
Cellar Tracker
Very tightly wound upon opening with a very earthy nose! After 2 hours in the decanter, bouquet of cedar, graphite, mint and vanilla inidicating lovely secondary characteristics. More fruit on the body than expected, it still has lively cassis, dark fruits and plum. Lovely balance with fine tannin and acidity. A typical finish of cedar and perhaps mint. Drink now to 8+ years.

Dark, intense, beautiful, slightly evolved color. Beautiful intense and fruity nose, creamy, appetizing, a little animal. Nice soft entry into the mouth; the wine develops with a beautiful touch. Normal build. Tasty in the middle, it lengthens in the finish and ends long with very fruity tannins with a taste of Médoc (ink, smoke, blackcurrant) without an ounce of dryness. It's very good.

Firm, old-school, classic-styled Pauillac with loads of cedar, tobacco leaf, herbs, mint, cigar box and red currants. There is a rustic edge to the tannins in the chewy, spicy, currant finish. Drink from 2022-2028.

Mid to pale crimson with a little age at the rim. Dried herbs and grasses on the nose. Then sweetness. Then some quite brutal tannins. This needs quite a time.

Château Château Pontet Canet
Château Pontet Canet

Historically, the wines at Pontet-Canet belong to the legend of the Medoc. Deep ruby, purple, sometimes black, Pontet-Canet wine develops a characteristic nose with a mix of black fruit, especially blackcurrants, licorice, plum, hints of figs, cedar and some cocoa. At the tasting, the wine combines power and elegance, density and amplitude. From a muscular nature, it imposes a sense of serene classicism with the tannic structure that reveals a long and peaceful custody. Men Pontet-Canet are constantly continuing their work there are now more than three centuries, making, each time the most advanced techniques with an eternal desire to improve the quality of wine in the respect and the purest expression of terroir. The wine of Pontet-Canet, and the second wine, Les Hauts de Pontet-Canet, are exclusively sold by traders in the Bordeaux.
