So much floral and dark-fruit character with almonds and walnut shell. Full body and ultra-fine tannins. Powerful. Classic style with a harmony and energy. Goes on for minutes. A superb wine with great fruit. Real Bordeaux. Try in 2025. (2/2018)

Proprietor Alfred Tesseron and winemaker Jean-Michel Comme produced an absolutely stellar Pontet-Canet in 2015. Sumptuous, racy and totally inviting, the 2015 is all class. Super-ripe dark cherry, plum, spice and exotic floral notes build as the 2015 shows off its alluring personality. Even with all of its raciness, the 2015 speaks with authority and power. Fine tannins extend the persistent, highly nuanced finish. The 2015 is 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot aged 50% new oak, 35% in terra cotta and 15% in neutral oak. Tasted three times. 97+ points. (AG) (2/2018)

Succulent fruits, rich tannins and juicy acidity are in perfect harmony in this wine produced from biodynamic grapes. It has a rich, velvet texture and dense structure, sumptuous and already balanced and delicious. However do not be fooled, this is a serious wine for aging. Drink no earlier than 2026. *Cellar Selection* (RV) (4/2018)

A blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, 50% of the 2015 Pontet-Canet was aged in new French oak, while 15% was matured in second fill barrels and 35% in cement amphorae. Deep garnet-purple in color, the nose opens with exuberant black currants, red currants and black raspberries scents plus an evocative undercurrent of cedar chest, dusty earth, cloves, chocolate box and Provence herbs with a fragrant waft of lavender. Medium to full-bodied and built like a brick house with very firm, wonderfully grainy tannins and black and red fruits charged with the most singular energy, it finishes with incredible persistence and depth. 96+ (LPB) (2/2018)

We are learning to understand the terroir, the vines as well as diseases and pests more and more thanks to nature's offering of immense resources that are so little used. This enables us to help the vine build up a resistance against illness or pests, naturally, without aggression. This was particularly useful at the beginning of the season when frequent rain reminded us of the two previous years.
Then, once the summer began, the sun settled in over the region. The hot weather lasted right up until harvest time, giving us high hopes for the vintage to come. Our animal traction project continued to develop. It required a lot of thought and a sincere long-term vision. The first results are already evident and go beyond our expectations as the soil very quickly rewards us when we show it respect.
Under perfect weather conditions, the harvest began on the 28th of September and continued under a permanent sunshine and hot temperatures, finishing on the 15th of October.

Ch ・teau Pontet-Canet 2009 - Tasting Notes :
Deep purple colour. The exceptionally complex nose is dominated by fruits such as blackcurrant and a very noticeable graphite presence. A flowery touch of violets adds extra elegance. In the mouth, the attack is yet powerful and contained. The high in tannins, long and highly refined structure is accentuated by a refreshing acidity. A great Pontet-Canet !

In Bordeaux each year is unique, with a character unlike any other. As with every child, a wine has two parents: the father―terroir; and a mother―the vintage. It will have something of each, but the wine will nonetheless be true to itself. The season began rather late, then unstable weather during flowering gave rise to coulure which reduced the number of grapes produced, especially in the older Merlot parcels. Finally, sun and dry weather arrived and lasted through the harvest―the sign of a great vintage. There has been significant development in the use of horses in the vineyard: we have gone from 7 to 24 hectares that are worked completely tractor-free. We have pared vinification down to the essentials in acknowledgment that, above all, a great wine is made in the vineyard. This 2010, the product of our commitment to organic and biodynamic vine growing, is certified for both types of viticulture―unique among the M ・doc's Great Classed Growths.

Ch ・teau Pontet-Canet 2010 - Tasting Notes :
Purple color, almost black. The very complex aromas have a vibrant character, dominated by notes of violet, blackberry, red currant and cherry, among others. There's complete harmony in the mouth, with a straightforward structure and impressive length. It is both dense and etherial. This is surely the greatest Pontet-Canet in modern times.
