Château Pontet-Canet, Ch. Pontet-Canet 1998, 12er OHK

86 / 100 Robert Parker
A pleasant, dark ruby-colored, elegant Pauillac, the 1998 displays hollowness on the mid-palate along with notes of red and black currants, tobacco, dried herbs, and earth. Although solidly-made, there is not much depth.

Very pretty blackberry and currant on the nose. Medium-bodied, with a solid core of polished tannins and a mineral, mint and licorice aftertaste. Ready to go. Drink now.
