Description

The 2006 is a wine to stockpile, especially for those in their thirties and forties as it needs another decade to reach maturity, after which it should keep for 30+ years. This vineyard, just south of Mouton Rothschild, has produced an opaque bluish/purple-colored 2006 with an extraordinarily pure nose of graphite, charcoal, sweet creme de cassis, and a hint of scorched earth. Incredible concentration, stunning richness, and a 60-second finish result in a wine that transcends the vintage as well as this estate’s 1855 classification. This enormously endowed, modern day classic is a legend in the making. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2050+. Enormous credit is due proprietor Alfred Tesseron for turning things around at this estate in 1994, and continuing to produce first-growth level wines. Pontet-Canet is one of the few bio-dynamically farmed vineyards in the Medoc, and Tesseron is such a perfectionist in both the vineyard and wine cellars that his nickname among other bordelais is “Monsieur Bonsai.”

Tasting note

2006年的龐德格力是一款來自波爾多保雅克產區的傑出葡萄酒。這款酒擁有濃郁的顏色和強烈的果香,並帶有高礦物質含量。口感豐富且結構良好,單寧非常柔順,餘味悠長而美味。這款酒在新橡木桶、混凝土罐和一次使用的橡木桶中陳釀16至18個月,增加了其複雜性和深度。葡萄園經歷了一個充滿挑戰的生長季節,經歷了炎熱乾燥的天氣和一些風暴,但釀酒師的精心管理和熱情使這款酒達到了完美的平衡。非常適合搭配烤羊肉、燉牛肉、成熟的奶酪、烤鴨和蘑菇燴飯。

The 2006 Chateau Pontet-Canet is a remarkable wine from the Pauillac appellation in Bordeaux. This wine boasts an intense color and a strong nose dominated by fruity notes and a high mineral content. The palate is full-flavored and structured, with very smooth tannins and a long, savory finish. The wine is aged for 16 to 18 months in a combination of new oak barrels, concrete amphoras, and one-wine oak barrels, adding complexity and depth. The vineyard experienced a challenging growing season with hot, dry conditions and some storms, but the careful management and passion of the winemakers resulted in a beautifully balanced wine. Perfectly paired with grilled lamb, beef stew, mature cheeses, roast duck, and mushroom risotto.
