Chateau Pontet-Canet Pauillac (Grand Cru Classe) 1998 italian red stewed plums and sauteed herbsThis wine is at the pinnacle of the vintage, one of the finest wines made. Energetic and with fabulous substance, it offers supreme balance, with a magical hue and a taffeta touch. Fruit, tannins and acidity all meld with sumptuous harmony. Another masterpiece. A blend of 37% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and 56% Cabernet Sauvignon. Light crimson in colour and slightly gravelly on the nose. Sweet to start, followed by dusty tannins with a fruity core
