Les Hauts de Pontet-Canet is the second wine of Château Pontet Canet 5th Cru Classé in Pauillac appellation. The Château produces organic and bio-dynamic wines that have become a safe bet among Bordeaux wines.

Made from a blend of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 1% Petit Verdot, this 2014 vintage is adorned with a deep purple color. The nose expresses complex notes of black and red fruits (blueberry, raspberry, blackberry) and spices.

Dense and fleshy on the palate, the attack has a lot of freshness and flexibility, almost creamy. Long and refreshing, the finish is full of delicacy, with creamy tannins.

The advice of 12bouteilles: Be sure to serve this superb Pauillac between 16°C and 18°C. It will be delicious accompanied by a good coast of Beauf or with a Sicilian caponata.
