Description

2014 Château Pontet-Canet, Pauillac, BordeauxThe 2014 Chteau Pontet Canet has a deep, rich colour that comes from beautifully ripe grapes. The nose is shy at first but opens up to reveal balsam and dark cherry notes that are seriously impressive. The rich cherry fruit shines through on the palate, backed by clean acidity and fine tannins. It has a classy, structured feel, suggesting it will age brilliantly. Theres a lovely balance here, with waves of wild strawberry and raspberry, plus a hint of
