The 1997 Pontet-Canet shows the estate's pre-biodynamic character with appealing immediacy. Blackcurrant and floral notes are joined by polished leather aromatics. Seductively smooth on the palate with unusual softness for young Pauillac. The tannins are lush and approachable, suggesting this vintage prioritized early charm over structure.
