2006 Château Pontet-Canet

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Saturday, September 4, 2010 - OK, OK...all baby killing comments aside, this by far the most disappointing Pontet Canet in its youth that I have had, and, when I can, I like to try them when they just come out in order to track their development. The fruit is nice and there is some structure from the tannins, but other than that there is not much to note about here. I would imagine that this will go for more than 5-7 years before going into decline, and the most that can be expected is for the fruit to mature and the tannin to integrate. It should be a very nice wine, but won't come close to the enjoyment that even the 02 PC has brought of late. No score at this point, but I am thinking 89 tops at this point.
