Chateau Pontet-Canet, Pauillac, France 2017 Domaine de la Guilloterie teasing and easefulThis has ethereal transparency to it with a fresh, red berry and cherry nose. Terra cotta and dried flower notes. Plums, too. Quite complex. The palate has a very detailed tannin texture with attractive cassis and blueberries that hold very long, fresh and pure. Fruity and fresh. 96 Pts James Suckling
