2001 Château Pontet-Canet

Community Tasting Note

88 Points

Friday, March 26, 2010 - Shows a good bite on the front end with more acidity then I was expecting. Fruit is nice and there's good body as well. I was looking for a little more of the earthy characteristics and that aspect never really emerged. Drying tannins on the back end. Pretty good but it falls short in comparison to more recent vintages of Pontet-Canet. If you have the choice, get the 02 instead of the 01.
