Alfred Tesseron of Château Pontet Canet has been making steady progress since the 1990s. From the vineyard plots to the cellar, respect for the vines and fruit is their guiding principle. For the last 10 years the vineyard has been organic and bio-dynamic. This wine is a blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot and 4% Cabernet Franc.
Tasting Notes:
“Bright berry red in colour, nuanced blackberry and loganberry with bitter black chocolate notes from the first attack. Lovely precision, good level of spice, earthy, unfussy, rose stem and blackcurrant bud. This was the third vintage with mildew pressure, but the team are now experienced, and I can attest to seeing the vines during harvest and remarking on how healthy they looked, with no-till farming helping concentration. Plenty of tannins give structure and are shot through with sinew and juice, this is an impressive wine from technical director Mathieu Bessonet, with Pauillac typicity.” - Score 95 - Jane Anson, JaneAnson.com, April 2022
Serving Suggestions:
Pairs well with classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck as well as rich dishes that include fish, mushrooms and a myriad of hard and soft cheeses.
