5/1/2023 - vvWine.ch wrote: 99 points99 vvPunkte / (57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc und 4% Petit Verdot, 55jährige Reben. 50% Neuholz, 35% Amphoren aus Beton und 15% gebrauchte Barriques. Die Trauben wurden mit Kamille und einem Gemisch aus gebranntem Lehm und Wasser gegen die die Hitze geschützt.) Sehr kräftige Farbe und ein reiffruchtigier Duft, dieser Pontet-Canet strahlt reiffruchtig aus dem Glas, das riecht nach schwarzer Kirsche, Backpflaume, Cassis und Lakritze, florale Noten schwingen mit. Im Gaumen mit cremiger Textur, einer umwerfenden Frucht und viel Struktur, die Tannine sind von höchster Güte, der Wein hat viel Kraft und gleichzeitig Eleganz, hallt im Abgang sehr lange nach. Ich erinnere mich an die hervorragenden 2009er und 2010er, dieser Wein ist wie eine Symbiose daraus. Grosses Pontet-Canet Kino. 2030-2060 (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 auf Château Pontet-Canet) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch |

5/8/2023 - Jeff Leve wrote: 97 pointsDeep purple with a blue hue in color, the wine is almost opaque in color. Cassis, flowers, plums, licorice, and tobacco leaf aromas adorn the perfume. It is already clear that with this wine, it is the purity in the fruit that stands out. The palate is equally pure, with its layers of glycerin-filled blackberries, and plums. The wine is lush, as well as refined. The finish meshes concentration with elegance, power with purity, lift and length. The peppery, spicy note, along with the resounding minty-freshness, and a touch of anise in the long, finish is what stands out here. There is no sensation of heat or over ripeness in this wine in the mid-palate or in the finish. The wine blends 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 4% Petit Verdot.14.7% ABV, pH 3.8. Harvesting took place September 8 - September 28. This is longest harvest and the earliest harvest in the history of the estate. The wine is aging in a combination of 50% new, French oak, and 35% Amphora. Pontet Canet is often a slow starter in barrel. My score could go higher when the wine is in bottle. Drink from 2028-2060. 96-98 Pts. 4 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

4/24/2023 - LiteItOnFire Does not like this wine: NRI didn’t check flawed in order to better alert this note: Unfortunately the wine has Brett. The En Premier campaign staff weren’t tasting the wines before presenting- and this was not the only estate. Minor Blue cheese was the identification. 1 person found this helpful, do you?

9/5/2023 - Peraix Does not like this wine: 90 pointsBordeaux 2022 barrel samples and some additional vintages (Solliden in Stockhom): Powerful but bitter/green. So heavy and difficult. This is not according to my preferences. I recommend trying before ordering more than one bottle. |

6/23/2022 - vvWine.ch wrote: 96 points(95-97 vvPunkte) 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot. Kräftiges Rubin. Reiffruchtige Nase, sehr tief, viel schwarze Johannisbeere, Pflaumen, florale Noten, Veilchen, ein Hauch Schokolade, auch Minze, super komplex. Im Gaumen straff, der Wein hat viel Druck, zeigt Konzentration, die Frucht ist ausgezeichnet gereift, knackig, getragen von Massen an Tanninen, diese umgarnen die Frucht wie ein Seidentuch, das hat viel Kraft und dennoch Finesse. Im Abgang sehr langanhaltend, endet frisch und mit delikater Würze. Ein sehr schöner, ausgewogener Pontet Canet. (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. Château Pontet-Canet) vvWine.ch |

4/23/2023 - Cailles wrote: 84 pointsBordeaux 2020 - 10 red & 1 sweet wine: Arrivage tasting by a merchant. Be aware, the sample size is quite small but here are a few observations: 1) Overall quality: This is another good vintage in Bordeaux but clearly not on the same level as 2016 or 2019. 2) Ripeness: What I tasted showed less ripe than 2015/18/19. Most wine show fresh dark and blue fruit, the two right banks showed well behaved too. None of the wines showed alcohol heat (a problem in many 18s and some 15s). Overall, I expected more ripeness but maybe the wineries I sampled all just got the picking date right. 3) Complexity: 2020 will not reach the heights of 2016 and for me is also a step or two behind 2015/18/19. 4) Precision: The precision was quite good, although not on the level of the 2016s. 5) Structural frame: The tannins are ripe but have more edges than in 16/18/19 and will need time to soften, the acidity is high and well-integrated, the texture is not as airy as in 2016 but a step above 15/18 and maybe even 19. Overall, the wines showed quite harmonious but without the magical balance of the 2016s (and the best 15/18/19s I had).. 7 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (5) |

5/14/2023 - Collector1855 wrote: 87 pointsBordeaux 2022 en Primeur and some recent vintages: After the 2016, the hot 2020 vintage produced an even more unbalanced wine here. Definitely too much heat and alcohol, not harmonious, little aroma. The 2022 was unfortunately not presented today. |

8/21/2023 - Jeff Leve wrote: 97 pointsWith a nose that displays truffle, tobacco leaf, cedar, licorice, and black currants, the wine is soft, fresh, refined, and focuses you on its cassis, blackberry, earth, spice, and peppery herb character. There are no hard edges in the finish, just soft, vibrant currants, herbs, and spice. The wine is a blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot, and 4% Cabernet Franc. 13% ABV, pH 3.8. The wine is aged in 45% new, French oak barrels and amphora.

11/17/2023 - chatters wrote: NRThat savoury concentrated back fruit syrup note initially greets the nose (as per other vintages), behind this sweet oak spice and a little alcohol prickle. In the mouth it's juicy, thickly concentrated with plentiful black hued fruit and drying, though integrated, tannins that prove a little monolithic. Having said that this is a relatively nimble juggernaut though the fruit drops a little too quickly for me. Hmm. |

2/23/2024 - Matt Scott Likes this wine: 98 pointsDecanted for three hours. Stunning fresh blackberries, teak, fragrant mud, every dried flower imagined, black cherries and cigar box complexity. Long, long, long during the whole finish, with precision. Regardless of the fact that this is wide and juicy during the middle palate. Microfiber tannins, with tension and so much depth. Up there with ‘09 and ‘10, yet a little more transparent, YET, the body is lavishly full. More claret-like. However, there’s staying power and the bones to age. Drink 2029 -. |
