The 1994 shows Pontet-Canet's pre-biodynamic character with surprising refinement for the vintage. Wild strawberry and blackberry aromatics emerge with subtle iron minerality. Medium-bodied with impressive structural integrity and a keen line of acidity that drives the spicy, classical finish. Less rustic than many '94s, this captures the estate's potential even before its biodynamic transformation.
