CHÂTEAU PONTET-CANET 2005 (2) Pauillac. 5ième Cru Classé 2 x scuffed labels The palate is medium-bodied, but dense and structured—certainly a more masculine Pontet-Canet built for long-term ageing. Yet it retains marvelous freshness and vitality all the way through to the pencil-lead, quite saline finish. Tasted February 2016. Drink Date 2025-2050 WS 96 WA 97 CHÂTEAU PONTET-CANET 2006 (2) Pauillac. 5ième Cru Classé 2 x scuffed labels Tasted January 2016. WA 94 CHÂTEAU PONTET-CANET 2008 (2) Pauillac. 5ième Cru Classé 2 x scuffed labels A candidate for the “wine of the vintage,” Pontet Canet’s 2008 boasts an opaque purple color as well as copious aromas of sweet blueberries, blackberries and black currant fruit intertwined with lead pencil shavings, subtle barbecue smoke and a hint of forest floor. Full-bodied, with fabulous richness, texture and tremendous freshness, this first-growth-like effort is more developed than the uber-powerful 2010. Give it 5-8 years of cellaring and drink it over the following three decades. Bravo! Drink: 2016-2046 May 2011 WA 96 CHÂTEAU PONTET-CANET 2010 (2) Pauillac. 5ième Cru Classé 2 x scuffed labels An absolutely amazing wine, from grapes harvested between the end of September and October 17, this blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot has close to 15% natural alcohol. It comes from one of the few biodynamic vineyards in Bordeaux, but you are likely to see many more, given the success that Tesseron seems to be having at all levels, both in his vineyards and in his fermentation/winemaking. An astounding, compelling wine with the classic Pauillac nose more often associated with its cross-street neighbor, Mouton-Rothschild, creme de cassis, there are also some violets and other assorted floral notes. The wine has off-the-charts massiveness and intensity but never comes across as heavy, overbearing or astringent.
