Chateau Pontet Canet 1995, Pauillac, France dry rub olive oil and Himalayan saltAn old style Pauillac, yet made with far more purity and richness than the estate's ancient vintages, this broad shouldered, muscular, classic wine exhibits a saturated purple color, and sensationally dense, rich, concentrated, cassis flavors that roll over the palate with impressive purity and depth. The wine is tannic and closed, but powerful and rich. It appears to possess length and intensity similar to the 1996. This is a great young Pauillac.
