Tasting Notes

Robert Parker 93

Tasted ex-chateau and single blind in Southwold. The Pontet-Canet 2008 has a lovely, extravagant bouquet with scents of blackberry, macerated dark cherries, graphite and sous-bois. It is very well defined. The palate is medium-bodied with a supple, almost fleshy entry with seamless tannins. The oak is well integrated with a pleasing citric edge. Not a a oeclassica Pauillac, a little more voluptuous than others…more like a 2009 in many ways. But it is complex and demonstrates very good persistency in the mouth.Tasted January 2012.
