Monday, March 19, 2018 - Bordeaux 2015 in bottle (Zurich Arvi / Singapore UGCB): Not a big fan of the Pontet Canets between 2000-2009, often too extracted with too little terroir. This one rocked however. Ripe, fleshy, sexy palate with dark fruit, blackberry, pine, complex. Sophisticated mouthfeel, good freshness. A very complete, aromatic Pauillac. More Mouton than Lafite in style. Together with Lynch Bages (wich is more Laifte style) the best Left Bank wine today. If you don't want to shell out money for the Mouton, buy this.
