Chateau Meyney 2003 - Saint Estèphe
Gorgeous deep red colour with great density
all the way to the rim. An astonishing
bouquet of ripe berries, fresh flowers and
hints of mocha and oak. Tremendously
smooth and seductive on the palate building
to great concentration of fruit and sweet
well-proportioned tannins along with
wonderful acidity.
Chateau Pontet-Canet 2001
Deep ruby-red, crimson, and sometimes
almost black colour and has a characteristic
bouquet of black fruit (especially
blackcurrant), liquorice, and prune as well as
fig, cedar, and sometimes cocoa overtones.
Pontet-Canet combines power and elegance
as well as concentration and fullness on the
palate. Rather sinewy in style, Pontet-Canet
is clearly a classical wine with a tannic
structure that provides excellent ageing
potential.
