Chateau Pontet-Canet, 5ème G.C.C, 1855 Pauillac 2011

A particularly intense colour heralds the quality of the vintage, while the mature nose expresses red and black fruit aromas with light oak and some floral notes. On the palate, a very generous tannic structure is complemented by uncommon refinement and precision. Graced with succulent tannins, the wine has a vibrancy that captivates with its emotional appeal. The quintessence of the Pontet-Canet terroir!

What strikes the taster immediately is the energy these wines display, the expression of tension and intensity: they are bright and brilliant, as though freed of any constraint. Their internal balance combines contained power, uncommon precision of fruit and undeniable class. They seduce by their full-bodied fruit, the finesse of their mouthfeel and their natural elegance, delivering a natural emotion which enhances their seductive charm.
