Tasted blind. Classic Cabernet nose. Quite rich and fresh. Sharp edges and quite a bit of tannin – and potential. (JR)

The 2015 Pontet Canet has a lovely bouquet with a mixture of red and black fruit, cedar and subtle tobacco scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy ripe tannins, smooth texture and a sheen of classy new oak with a dab of spice that enlivens the finish. The 2015 is primal for being ten years old—this is one I would keep cellared. It was tasted blind at the 2015 Bordeaux Ten-Year-On tasting.
65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 1% Petit Verdot. Harvest 18 September to 3 October. Deep colour to the rim. Rich and concentrated but the aromatics a little blurred. Dark fruit with initially a hint of black olive. Palate supple, opulent with powerful but polished tannins. Lacks a little precision but plenty of depth and flavour and just enough freshness. Worth waiting to see how it develops. (JL)
