About Château Pontet-Canet 2016
Bottle (75cl)

Château Pontet Canet 2016 is the product of a blend of 3 traditional grape varieties from the Pauillac AOC, Cabernet Sauvignon (60%), Merlot (39%) and Petit Verdot (1%).

On the nose, the 2016 vintage of Château Pontet Canet is more generous than its neighbours in the Pauillac AOC. It presents a lively and complex bouquet of black fruits, with blackberries and black plums, completed by a mentholated note and subtly spiced with a touch of truffle.
On the palate, Pontet Canet 2016 is moderately full-bodied. The black fruits are skillfully enhanced by a very fine tannic structure and are enhanced by a light layer of warm spices. It unfolds in the mouth, covering the palate with layers of black fruit, until it reveals a long lasting balsamic note at the end of the mouth.
