Friday, September 16, 2022 - Wow so approachable. Aired in bottle for about 5 hours already. Drank in Grassl 1855.
Appearance is clear, deep intensity, medium+ intensity, with aromas of earthiness with hint of emerging forest floor, deep cassis, blackcurrants, blackberries, dark black cherries, bit of salted cured meat. Developing.
On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13.5%), structured yet pillowy high tannins, full body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of deep cassis, blackcurrant, blackberries, dark black cherries, dark meatiness, Pauillac muscle. Long finish.
Very good quality. Didn't have a good impression of Pontet-Canet before but looks like I'll eat my words. Will go on and develop well. So promising.
