The red wine Château Pontet-Canet, vintage 2000 from the winery Château Pontet-Canet has been rated in 2022 by Peter Moser with 94 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot from the region Pauillac in France.
Deep ruby, purple reflections, subtle brightening on the rim. Multifaceted bouquet with notes of black berries, cassis and candied violets, with spicy nuances of cedar wood and incense. Taut, medium-bodied and tight-knit on the palate, with fine dark fruit, fresh structure, vivid tannins, powerful finish, still appears very youthful, with many years ahead of it. Thanks to the improvements in the vineyard, it is already much more complex than in previous years, but does not yet show the elegance and finesse that will come at the beginning of the next decade. A thoroughly robust Pauillac.
