Château Pontet-Canet 2003 Limited Edition Château Ducru Beaucaillou 1996 displaysThe spectacular 2003 Pontet Canet is still incredibly young and vigorous. This full bodied classic boasts a dense purple color as well as a superb nose of graphite, creme de cassis, forest floor, licorice and a hint of truffles, low acidity, and extravagant richness. Most of the tannins have been resolved in this superstar of the vintage. It should continue to drink well for 10 15+ years.
