Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, July 10, 2012 - Broad shouldered, big, concentrated, tannic, ripe, black, purple and ruby in color and obviously very young, this fabulous vintage of Pontet Canet is well worth buying as it can be found for about $90. That's a lot of money, but for a wine of this quality, it's fair. Cassis, blackberry, truffle, tobacco, cedar, coffee and spice scents with air and swirling. Mouth filling, fresh, lively and structgured to age, this voluptuous Pauillac demands at least decade to mature. But if you own a case and want to try a bottle, it's well worth popping a bottle to see and enjoy how this keeps filling out and developing.
