Pontet-Canet Half Bottle for 2019. One of Bordeaux's most notable Fifth Growth estates, known for its potent Cabernet Sauvignon-driven wines, is delightfully tasted in this red mix. Château Pontet-Canet has a rich and distinguished past that dates back to the seventeenth century. The estate, which was designated as a Fifth Growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, has continuously produced wines of outstanding quality. Expect a bouquet bursting with aromas of ripe blackcurrant and cassis, mingling with enticing hints of cedar, tobacco leaf, and a touch of graphite. Subtle floral notes add a touch of complexity, hinting at the well-balanced character to come.
It delivers a medium to full-bodied experience with a firm yet approachable structure. The blend, typically dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and Cabernet Franc playing supporting roles, offers a harmonious combination of power and finesse. Well-integrated tannins frame the flavors of dark fruit, complemented by hints of spice, earth, and a touch of minerality. Enjoy it alongside a special weeknight dinner, a celebratory cheese board with charcuterie, or even a cozy night in. Due to its structure, it pairs beautifully with grilled red meats like lamb chops or ribeye steak. The elegant label and prestigious Château Pontet-Canet name make this half-bottle a thoughtful gift for the discerning wine enthusiast. It's a perfect size for someone who enjoys trying new wines from esteemed estates or for a delightful solo indulgence.
We've also got Château Batailley Pauillac Grand Cru Classé 2016, Primitivo di Manduria Attanasio 2017
