我が家の長男が現地フランスでボルドーのシャトーを数多く訪ねておりましたところ、このポンテ・カネンが余程美味しかったようで、「5大シャトーよりも美味しかった」とラインで感想を送ってくれました。
実際に2009/2010と連続して100点を獲得していることでも、その実力は明白です。ボルドー左岸で初めてビオデナミ認証を受けるなど先進的な存在です。
是非お試しくださいませ。

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2016 Pontet-Canet hits the ground running with a hedonic nose of Black Forest cake, crème de cassis and blueberry pie plus suggestions of candied violets, hoisin, chocolate mint, charcuteries and forest floor with a waft of star anise. Full-bodied, rich, profoundly layered and powerfully fruited, the palate is built like a brick house, with very firm, super ripe, grainy tannins and harmonious freshness, finishing with incredible length and depth. Still incredibly primary and yet already strutting so many layers, I wouldn't be at all surprised if this warrants the three-digit score in a few years' time.
