James Suckling
Reviewed February 2015A refined and elegant red with fine tannins, milk chocolate and berry character. A medium-to-full-bodied, silky and very pretty wine. Needs two to three years to soften. Better in 2017.

Vinous
A deep, dense wine, the massively constituted 2012 Grand-Pontet possesses a huge center of fruit and tons of intensity. Cured meats, smoke, game and tobacco notes develop in the glass, giving the wine a distinctive, wild edge along with plenty of nuance. It will be interesting to see if the tannins soften from here. Readers should be prepared to cellar the 2012 for at least a few years. (AG)
