Château Pontet-Canet Pauillac 5eme Cru Classé Organic 2018

This superb 2018 is from one of very few elite châteaux creating claret of a quality that can compete with neighbouring First Growth estates. Leading wine publication Wine Advocate wrote of this sublime Pauillac, “The rich, seductive, full-bodied palate is a hedonist's dream, delivering layer-upon-layer of black and red berry preserves with loads of fragrant accents, a beautifully firm yet plush texture and tons of freshness,” going on to say "This is pretty much out-of-the-gate delicious, but it has the backbone to evolve over three decades or more." With such poise, power and seductive richness, this world-beating Grand Cru demands first class fare to accompany it. Enjoy with beef Wellington or lamb shanks. Decant early or cellar.
