Château Pontet-Canet Pauillac 2014

A stunning wine for this vintage although it’s still a bit shy on the nose (more spice than fruit showing than now). There’s wet earth, too, but on the palate it’s bursting with ripe yet subtle flavors. Very long and complex finish that goes on and on. Score – 98. (jamessuckling.com, Jan. 18, 2017)
