Après un 2009 d'anthologie, on pouvait espérer que la loi des séries offrirait un Pontet Canet 2010 tout aussi grand. Robert Parker ne s'y est d'ailleurs pas trompé en le récompensant d'un 100. Ce millésime, fruit d'une démarche de viticulture biologique et biodynamique, devrait être l'un des tous meilleurs vins produits sur le domaine parmi les plus de trois cents millésimes qui ont porté le nom de Château Pontet-Canet.

Wine Advocate-Parker :
Deep garnet in color, the 2010 Pontet-Canet is a little tired on the nose, giving up notes of balsamic, roasted nuts and fallen leaves over a core of raisin cake, spice box and unsmoked cigars. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is a little flat and chewy with a racy backbone and a stewed tea finish. I'm not sure this was the best bottle of this wine, so I will give it the benefit of a doubt with a question mark.
