Merchant's description

Est. delivery in autumn, 2026 Château Pontet-Canet stands as Pauillac's biodynamic pioneer, transforming from reliable Left Bank estate into one of Bordeaux's most compelling properties. The 2022 captures this evolution perfectly: a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot that speaks with both power and grace from their gravelly Pauillac soils. We find this vintage shows the estate's signature combination of dark fruit intensity and mineral backbone, enhanced by the biodynamic farming that has defined their approach since 2004.
