Chateau Les Hauts de Pontet Pauillac 1996

Deep red.

Wonderful, expressive, deep Bordeaux nose of black fruit (currants?), medicinal herbs, sl game.


Round entry, with an iron note, flavors otherwise mirror nose. Light-middle weight loses some flavor energy in the finish. Still this is a very attractive bottle from a great vintage.





$25
