The 2009 Pichon-Lalande is very pretty & fine with fresh red fruit notes on the palate & fine, almost difficult-to-detect tannins. This is gentle, smooth & silky, not as intense as some, but given time promises to seduce with its undeniable feminine charm. ...

A splendid raspberry colour, a subtle, distinguished nose of red soft fruit & fresh roses. Heady & round on the palate with a controlled potency. Plenty of body with an elegant, lasting fruitiness. Lovely harmony in a vintage offering the fullness of the Cabernet Sauvignon which predominates in this blend. 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Cabernet Franc. ...

Once again, the chateau transcends the vintage & delivers a 2012 of remarkable purity & energy. Its definition & brilliance are absolutely fantastic, with a brightness of fruit & finesse of tannin which takes it to the summit. Another landmark. Pontet-Canet matured almost a third of the 2012 harvest in amphorae. Red fruits dominate the nose with a rather perfumed edge to the fruit almost masking the notes of violets. Redcurrant & violet character. The palate is full of spice & opulent fruit; like black cherry & cassis. It is beautifully balanced, the ripe tannins are well integrated & it has bracing acidity. It is an elegant style of red wine that will be impressive for a good few more years to come. ...

The northern Mdoc was the great success story in the 2003 vintage, sublimating the summer heat into power & depth rather than overripeness. This is a great example, all blackberry, tobacco & measured richness, with real plumpness & length on the palate. ...

One of the most consistently impressive estates in the northern Medoc, Potensac's 2006 (made by the same winemaking team that produces the great Leoville Las Cases). Reveals a deep ruby hue, notes of sweet cherries, roasted herbs, licorice, & gamy meat, & good fruit, structure, purity, & freshness. ...
