Chateau Pontet Canet - Pauillac Red 2014Grapes Cabernet sauvignon, Cabernet franc, Merlot Tasting notes The nose is bewitching with a frank and precise fruit scent. It is underlined by mineral and spicy notes that link this wine to the terroir where it was born. The full and elegant attack is followed by a fresh, dense and silky, almost creamy mid palate.
