Cellar Tracker August - 2023
Cellar Tracker
Excellent showing from a 37yo Bordeaux. Was worried at first that the wine may be dead and had a back up on hand but first sip proved good, even if it was maybe a bit thin. Decanted for sediment which there was very little and aired in the cellar for about one hour. Then the magic happened... Deep, robust scents of dark fruits, warm leather, and earthy notes. Layers upon layers of complex flavours and warm notes of dark fruit and tobacco. Excellent weight in the mouth showed its balance of fully-resolved tannins with lively but composed fruit. Acidity may have been in decline but in no way flabby. Good enough to stand up to beef short ribs. Excellent staying power showed no decline over a two-hour dinner and was pleasantly surprised by its performance. Another win for Pontet-Canet and well-aged Bordeaux.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate January - 2003
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
This wine still remains relatively young, with a dark plumgarnet color, an intriguing nose of black currants intermixed with compost, earth, and a hint of mushroom. The wine is dense, muscular, tannic, and very masculine. The tannins seemed slightly elevated for the concentration, but there is a lot going on here. This wine certainly saturates the palate, but will it ever come into complete harmony? .

A rich, elegant, complex and well-proportioned wine with layers of cedar, p lum, currant and spice that are intense and deep. Finish is long and elegant. .

Dark red color. Moderate to good. Slight changes. 1st Net Nose. Cream. Agitation Net. More fruity. Entry into mouth sweet mouth, growing on a medium body. Wine lack of material and changes quickly on some dry tannins on the finish and simple. To drink quickly. .

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.
