Description

Tasting Note for the 2000 Chateau Grand Pontet: A blend of 75 Merlot, 15 Cabernet Franc, and 10 Cabernet Sauvignon produced from modest yields of 30 hectolitres per hectare, this opaque purple-coloured, fat, ripe, exotic, flamboyant effort (coffee, plums, vanilla, and sweet black cherries galore) is a St.-Emilion fruit-bomb made in a modern style. With loads of character, glycerin, fruit, and concentration, this full-bodied, "stacked and packed" wine will be adored by consumers! Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 146, April 2003.

Reviews

** 92 Points - Robert Parker **
Quality has exploded in 2000, offering an extra dimension in both aromas and flavors. A blend of 75% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon produced from modest yields of 30 hectoliters per hectare, this opaque purple-colored, fat, ripe, exotic, flamboyant effort (coffee, plums, vanilla, and sweet black cherries galore) is a St.-Emilion fruit-bomb made in a modern style. With loads of character, glycerin, fruit, and concentration, this full-bodied, 'stacked and packed' wine will be adored by consumers! (RP) (4/2003)

92 points Wine Spectator
Very intense aromas of minerals and crushed berries, with hints of flowers. Full-bodied, with super silky tannins and a long, caressing finish. Sleek wine. Greatest wine ever from this estate. (JS) (3/2003)
