    The Chateau Pontet Canet Pauillac 2019 is an exceptional wine crafted with 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot. With its deep ruby/plum color, this wine is a beautiful representation of Pauillac chateau pontet canet. The winemaker Alfred Tesseron, who focuses on biodynamic viticulture, ensures the grapes are hand-sorted and vinified with care, making this vintage truly unique. The amphora aging technique used in this wine helps reveal the terroir-driven character, with 35% aged in amphorae and the rest in oak barrels (50% new, 15% one-year old).

    On the nose, the Chateau Pontet Canet Pauillac 2019 offers a fragrant bouquet of flowers, including peony and dried herbs, combined with ripe plum, blackberry, and a hint of cassis. The aromatic profile continues with nuances of coffee, tobacco, and a touch of smoky wood. As you take a sip, the palate feels full-bodied and succulent, with layers of ripe fruits and ultra-fine tannins that spread elegantly across the mouth. The wine feels balanced, with the right amount of acidity and a seamless integration of flavors.

    The tannins build gradually, adding depth, while the amphora aging contributes to a mineral purity that shines through. The finish is endless, with lingering notes of cassis and a touch of smokiness from the oak. It’s an explosive yet refined experience, making this vintage one to remember.

    Critical Acclaim

    WS 94
    Wine Spectator
    Very lush out of the gate, with waves of gently mulled plum, blackberry and black currant fruit that roll through slowly, lined with alder, sweet tobacco, worn cedar and singed savory notes. Delivers a late tug of iron that's well-buried on a finish marked by lingering perfume, resulting in an end impression of a rich wine that's very light on its feet. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2023.
    WE 99
    Wine Enthusiast
    This is a luscious, sumptuous wine, with layers of black fruits and wonderfully cushioned tannins. The structure of the wine is initially masked by the great fruits, but then finds balance from a dry edge of spice, smokiness and lifted acidity. It's another great vintage from this biodynamic estate.
    WA 93
    Wine Advocate
    The 2019 Pontet-Canet offers up an expressive bouquet of plummy fruit, kirsch, dried herbs and peonies. On the palate, it's full-bodied, ample and seamless, with melting tannins, succulent acids, and a long, liqueured finish. Tasted twice, it's a wine I find somewhat perplexing: in a blind tasting, I might be more inclined to place it in Gigondas than Pauillac. I'm far from dogmatic when it comes to what the French call "typicité," and stylistic diversity surely enriches every appellation; but by the same token, I'm not convinced that this is the most compelling aesthetic that a Cabernet-based blend from this part of Bordeaux can realize. Checking in at 13.7% alcohol, some 35% of the production was matured in amphorae, which no doubt contributes to the wine's idiosyncratic identity. Best After 2021

    Decanter
    Clear Pauillac character in terms of its tannic structure, overlaid with the Pontet signature of recent vintages that translates into spirals of peony and iris alongside brambled hedgerow. As it settles, coffee bean and tobacco adds a charred character alongside blackberry and cassis puree. It opens extremely slowly, with so many subtle nuances that gather in confidence. The tannins have unmistakeable Pauillac strength, but the structure and the subtlety of this wine is Pontet-Canet, with the amphoras having an influence in terms of the tannins feeling less silky than they do in many of the appellation's biggest wines, but still with swagger.

    Jeb Dunnuck
    The 2019 Château Pontet Canet checks in as a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot that was brought up in a mix of barrels and concrete tanks. It shows the new style of the estate with a more savory, exotic, medium to full-bodied style that's a dramatically different beast than the benchmark 2009 and 2010 vintages, which to my mind, are the greatest vintages from this estate to date. The 2019 has a ruby/plum color as well as a perfumed nose of redcurrant and mulberry fruits as well as notes of brambly herbs, wood smoke, peony, leather, and cedar pencil. It's aromatic and complex, although certainly not classic Pauillac, and on the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, with firm, savory, yet quality tannins, good balance, and outstanding length. Best After 2029

    James Suckling
    The aromas to this are really amazing, with a potpourri of spices and dried flowers, as well as redcurrants, sweet plums and even some peaches. Full-bodied with layers of ripe fruit and ultra-fine tannins that spread across the palate in an encompassing yet always elegant and pure way. It’s succulent and unadulterated. Like crushed, perfectly ripened grapes. The length is rather endless. The tannins build. Fabulous young red. 35% in amphora and the rest in 50% new oak and 15% one-year oak. 65% cabernet sauvignon and 30% merlot, the rest cabernet franc and petit verdot.
