Magnum Château Pontet Canet 2008
Bordeaux - Pauillac - 5e Cru ClasséCru Classé - Red Wine -
What a amazing wine this Château Pontet Canet vintage 2008, 5th Cru Classé of Pauillac, managed by Alfred Tesseron who converted the vineyard biodynamic (certified from the vintage 2010).
A very dark red color, its nose expresses aromas of black fruits, red, is light woody. An ample wine, the tannins are powerful, greedy, long in the mouth. A fantastic wine that deserve an exceptional flacon, a Magnum !
Robert Parker has awarded him these vintages, the rare score of 96-98+/100.
A candidate for the "wine of the vintage," Pontet Canet's 2008 boasts an opaque purple color as well as copious aromas of sweet blueberries, blackberries and black currant fruit intertwined with lead pencil shavings, subtle barbecue smoke and a hint of forest floor. Full-bodied, with fabulous richness, texture and tremendous freshness, this first-growth-like effort is more developed than the uber-powerful 2010. Give it 5-8 years of cellaring and drink it over the following three decades. Bravo!
Let yourself be charmed by this Château Pontet Canet 2008, you will not be disappointed !!
The advice of 12bouteilles: To appreciate its full potential and release its aromas, decant the 2 hours before serving.
