An absolutely amazing wine, from grapes harvested between the end of September and October 17, this blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot has close to 15% natural alcohol. It comes from one of the few biodynamic vineyards in Bordeaux, but you are likely to see many more, given the success that Tesseron seems to be having at all levels, both in his vineyards and in his fermentation/winemaking. An astounding, compelling wine with the classic Pauillac nose more often associated with its cross-street neighbor, Mouton-Rothschild, creme de cassis, there are also some violets and other assorted floral notes. The wine has off-the-charts massiveness and intensity but never comes across as heavy, overbearing or astringent. The freshness, laser-like precision, and full-bodied, massive richness and extract are simply remarkable to behold and experience. It is very easy, to become jaded tasting such great wines from a great vintage, but it is really a privilege to taste something as amazing as this. Unfortunately, it needs a good decade of cellaring, and that’s assuming it doesn’t close down over the next few years. This is a 50- to 75-year wine from one of the half-dozen or so most compulsive and obsessive proprietors in all of Bordeaux. Is there anything that proprietor Alfred Tesseron is not doing right? Talk about an estate that is on top of its game! Pontet-Canet’s 2010 is a more structured, tannic and restrained version of their most recent perfect wine, the 2009. Kudos to Pontet-Canet!

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 terrior. Try after 2018.

65 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 30 % Merlot, 4 % Cabernet Franc, 1 % Petit Verdot. 41 hl/ha. Tiefes Purpur, satt in der Mitte, Granatschimmer am Rand. Schwarzes Beerenpaket in der dezent trockenen Nase, Teernoten, Lakritze, extrem tiefgründig. Fester Gaumen, viel Fleisch, alles im schwarzbeerigen Bereich, unglaubliche Aromatik und auch hier wieder mit einer genialen tiefschürfenden Grundlage. Ein absoluter Terroir-Pontet-Canet. Kein lauter Pauillac, aber einer, der an ganz legendäre Jahrgänge von früheren Zeiten erinnert und so kann dieser 2010er auch zur Legende der eigenen Châteauhistorie werden. Aber, vor 15 Jahren geht hier wirklich gar nichts! warten (2024 - 2055)

This is big, broad and powerfully rendered, but remarkably polished and refined at the same time. An enormous core of roasted fig, blackberry and black currant fruit is suavely wrapped with roasted apple wood and sandalwood, while dark espresso, loam and warm paving stone notes drive the finish. Very long, with a great tug of scorched earth at the end. A terrific combination of power and precision. Best from 2020 through 2040. –JM

Château Pontet Canet
Le Château Pontet-Canet, domaine mythique du Médoc et fief de la famille Tesseron depuis plus de quatre décennies, trouve ses fondements au début du 18ème siècle. A cette époque, Jean-François de Pontet, gouverneur royal du Médoc, a réuni plusieurs parcelles de vignes à Pauillac. Environ un siècle plus tard, lors de l’Exposition Universelle de 1855, le château a été inscrit an rang de Cinquième Grand Cru Classé, confirmant ainsi sa place parmi l’élite du Médoc. Ses 81 hectares de vignes bénéficient d’une situation privilégiée sur les meilleurs terroirs graveleux de l’appellation. Dès le millésime 2010, Pontet-Canet a été parmi les premiers domaines bordelais à décrocher une certification, à la fois en agriculture biologique et en biodynamie. Depuis quarante ans, dans un souci qualitatif et pour mieux exprimer son terroir unique, la famille a entrepris plusieurs travaux de rénovation au domaine, dont des innovations techniques dans le chai de vinification. La propriété est dirigée aujourd’hui par Alfred Tesseron et propose à travers ses vins la quintessence de Pauillac. Denses, massives et puissantes, ses cuvées offrent aussi des tanins souples et ronds rehaussés par des parfums intenses de cassis et de cèdre. Son second vin, les Hauts de Pontet, lui aussi doté d’une capacité de vieillissement spectaculaire, fait l’objet des mêmes soins méticuleux que le grand vin, Pontet-Canet.
