1983 Château Pontet-Canet

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Friday, March 1, 2013 - Opened and decanted for about an hour. The nose was a crazy mish-mash of dusty red soil, smoked meat, campfire, char-griller, and no fruit at all. On the palate, after about an hour, we found some dried red fruit, dusty soil, and dried herb flavors. More time brought those into harmony but never quite to the forefront. I think this wine has just started a downward ascent, but the amount of acid and tannin present were pleasing.
