01: Extrem dichte Violett-Purpurfarbe, schwarze Reflexe darin. Traumhaftes, klassisches Pauillac-Bouquet, Brombeeren und würziges Terroir, Trüffeltouch, schwarze Edelhölzer. Fleischiger, dichter Gaumen, recht feine Tannine, wiederum eine tolle, reife Cabernet-Aromatik mit viel blauen und schwarzen Beeren, die Gerbstoffe sind im Nachklang noch sanft aufrauhend, geben dem Wein aber einen fast mächtigen Charakter. Top-Wein in der Médoc-Szene, enorm viel Lagerpotential. (18/20). 10: Geniales Bouquet, viel königliche Cabernetwürze, feine Küchenkräuternoten, Brombeeren, schwarze Johannisbeeren, Brazil-Tabak. Königlicher Gaumen, recht feine Gerbstoffe die sich zu einer ausgeglichenen Adstringenz formen, zeigt noch viel Zukunft und gehört locker zu den allerbesten Bordeauxwerten in dieser Preislage. Ein baroker Pauillac! (19/20). 12: Bei einem Diner mit Luzerner Freunden auf dem Weingut. Dicht, verlangend, noch deutlich adstringierend. Man könnte zwar eventuell jetzt beginnen - aber dann verpasst man mindestens die Hälfte von später… trinken (2012 - 2028)

Upgraded in score over my original rating, which was several points lower, Alfred Tesseron has done a remarkable job since 1994 with Pontet-Canet, which has been hitting first-growth levels since 2003. But the 2000 also shows exceptionally well. In need of another decade of cellaring, this dense purple wine has a classic nose of incense, charcoal, creme de cassis, and subtle new oak. Full-bodied, powerful, still very tannic, and shockingly backward, this is a big, rich wine that has put on weight and seems to need more time than I originally predicted. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2035+.

I drank this fabulous 2000 Pontet-Canet in Hong Kong last summer at home with family. It was a wonderfully complex wine that was really starting to show its best. On the nose it displayed tar and currants with hints of dried fruits and berries. It was full-bodied yet so refined and delicious at the same time.

Extremely pretty aromas of mineral, blackberry and raspberry. Full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a medium finish. Well-crafted red. The best Pontet-Canet ever. Best after 2010. 2,330 cases made. –JS

Tasted at the Pontet-Canet vertical, the 2000 Château Pontet-Canet is perhaps where things start getting interesting, as Alfred Tesseron's top-to-toe reconfiguration of the vineyard and vinification began to impact and ameliorate the wine. It has a lovely bouquet of blackberry and briary fruit, hints of black truffle developing, later damp earth. There is an intensity here, if not the complexity of the best millennial Pauillacs. The palate is medium-bodied with a mixture of red and black fruit, cedar and sous-bois percolating up through and rendering it a "serious" Pontet-Canet in keeping with the vintage. There is a subtle and yet insistent grip on the finish. It has always been a tannic wine, but these are now softening, albeit at a slower pace than some might like. Therefore, I might be inclined to hold on to bottles for another 3-4 years. Tasted February 2016.

Château Pontet Canet
La leggendaria tenuta del Médoc Château Pontet-Canet è stata di proprietà della famiglia Tesseron per oltre quarant'anni. Tuttavia, la sua storia risale all'inizio del XVIII secolo, quando il governatore reale del Médoc Jean-François de Pontet raggruppò vari terreni di Pauillac. Appena un secolo dopo, l'Esposizione Universale del 1855 confermò lo status elitario dello Château, classificandolo come Cinquième Cru. Con 81 ettari di vigneti sui migliori terreni ghiaiosi della denominazione, Pontet-Canet è stata una delle prime tenute di Bordeaux a ottenere la certificazione biologica e biodinamica, a partire dall'annata 2010. Negli ultimi quarant'anni, nell'interesse della qualità e per riflettere al meglio il terroir unico dei vini, la famiglia ha ristrutturato la tenuta, apportando anche innovazioni tecniche alla vinificazione. Oggi l'azienda è gestita da Alfred Tesseron e produce vini Pauillac per antonomasia. Si tratta di rossi importanti, potenti e densi, con tannini morbidi e ampi, completati da intense fragranze di ribes nero e cedro. Entrambi con potenziali d’invecchiamento spettacolari, il secondo vino, Hauts de Pontet, e l'eccezionale Grand Vin, Pontet-Canet, sono realizzati in modo impeccabile.
