Chateau Pontet Canet 2014 750 ml

A stunning wine for this vintage although it’s still a bit shy on the nose with more spice than fruit showing than now. There’s wet earth, too, but on the palate it’s bursting with ripe yet subtle flavours. Very long and complex finish that goes on and on.

Classic Cabernet nose of cassis. Lovely purity and depth with a silky texture that caresses the palate, more obviously Pontet-Canet than Pauillac. An extremely fine wine almost in a class of its own.
