Chateau Pontet-Canet, Pauillac, France 2018 Semillon With long persistenceA complex nose of blueberries, elderberries, dried fruit, spice and dark chocolate. Its full bodied with a harmonious, balanced texture. The tannins are still firm and powerful, but theres balance and finesse to the whole thing. Tight and reserved, yet long and energetic. The tannins open slowly. Dusty texture. From biodynamically grown grapes. 98 Pts James Suckling
