DOUBLE 100-Pt Pontet-Canet Grand Cru—Last Few Cases!

100 Points from James Suckling saying:
"The aromas to this are incredible with blueberry, minerals, dried flowers, and stones. It goes to dried meat and spices. Full body and incredibly integrated with blackberry, licorice, and minerals. There's a wonderful purity to this. It goes on for minutes. The quality of tannins is amazing. Seamless. There's an amazing transparency that shows you all the elements of the wine's unique terroir."

100 Points from Wine Advocate saying:
"The 2010 Pontet-Canet offers a very deep garnet color. Whoa—the nose explodes with a vast array of black fruit preserves and savory nuances: plum preserves, blackcurrant cordial, black cherry coulis and licorice with wafts of dried lavender, melted chocolate, charcuterie, black olives, truffles and camphor plus a hint of sandalwood. The full-bodied palate is completely filled with black fruits, exotic spices and earthy nuances with a firm foundation of ripe, grainy tannins and bold freshness, finishing with epic length and depth. So much more expressive and seductive than a lot of 2010s at this stage, and yet it is still incredibly youthful!"

98 Points from Wine Enthusiast saying:
"Dense, yes, but this is also a handsome wine that balances complex tannins with pure black currant fruits that shine. This biodynamic wine has a generous, full and rich feel, ripe with just a touch of restraint. The greatness of the wine shows in its purity with a deceptive simplicity that hides the final complex tannins and structure."

customer review:
"Amazing wine. This was my first 'Pauillac' and it didn't disappoint. Obviously there are high expectations for a wine of this price point. Big but balanced with exceptional flavors of licorice, fig, jam and spice with impressive refinement. Simply not something you taste very often but worth it. I have one more that I am going to try in another five years and I'll bet it will be even better." -William H.
