WE LOVE IT BECAUSE:

"An amazing wine in every sense, this classic, full-bodied Pauillac is the quintessential Pontet Canet from proprietor Alfred Tesseron, who continues to reduce yields and farms his vineyards biodynamically - a rarity in Bordeaux. Black as a moonless night, the 2009 Pontet Canet offers up notes of incense, graphite, smoke, licorice, creme de cassis and blackberries. A wine of irrefutable purity, laser-like precision, colossal weight and richness, and sensational freshness, this is a tour de force in winemaking that is capable of lasting 50 or more years. The tannins are elevated, but they are sweet and beautifully integrated as are the acidity, wood and alcohol (which must be in excess of 14%). This vineyard, which is situated on the high plateau of Pauillac adjacent to Mouton Rothschild, appears to have done everything perfectly in 2009. This cuvee should shut down in the cellar and re-open in a decade or more. Anticipated maturity: 2025-2075"

-Robert Parker (100 points)

Chateau Pontet Canet is a winery in the Pauillac appellation of the Bordeaux wine region of France. Chateau Pontet Canet is also the name of the red wine produced by this property. The wine produced was classified as one of eighteen Fifth Growths in the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855.

Paulliac is located on the left bank of Bordeaux and dominates the rest of Bordeaux with concentration of first growth properties. The gravel soils produce powerful and age-worthy Cabernet Sauvignons known for their inky colour and blackcurrant and cigar box aromas.
