Château Pontet-Canet--Vintage 2006
1 salmanazar (9 litres) per lot
Château Pontet-Canet--Vintage 2006 Pauillac, 5me cru classé Tasting note: The 2006 is a wine to stockpile, especially for those in their thirties and forties as it needs another decade to reach maturity, after which it should keep for 30+ years. This vineyard, just south of Mouton Rothschild, has produced an opaque bluish/purple-colored 2006 with an extraordinarily pure nose of graphite, charcoal, sweet creme de cassis, and a hint of scorched earth. Incredible concentration, stunning richness, and a 60-second finish result in a wine that transcends the vintage as well as this estates 1855 classification. This enormously endowed, modern day classic is a legend in the making. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2050+. 95+ points. Robert Parker Wine Advocate # 181 (Feb 2009) 1 salmanazar (9 litres) per lot
