The spectacular 2003 Pontet Canet is still incredibly young and vigorous. This full-bodied classic boasts a dense purple color as well as a superb nose of graphite, creme de cassis, forest floor, licorice and a hint of truffles, low acidity, and extravagant richness. Most of the tannins have been resolved in this superstar of the vintage. It should continue to drink well for 10-15+ years. Drink 2014-2029; Rating: 95 Points; Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate

Full-bodied, very rich and powerful with massive tannins but it finishes sweet and ripe. This is muscular, but then it turns to crushed fruit. Super-seductive. The best Pontet I have ever tasted. Rating: 95 Points; James Suckling
