Château Cadet Pontet

Château Pontet-Canet

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2001

Medium ruby garnet , narrow garnet rim . Quite deep spicy tobacco , cassis , redcurrant , grafite , smoky herbal notes on the nose. On the palate this is quite restrained and elegant , with a mix of red and dark fruits , cassis , blueberry , red currant , touch of menthol also . Good refreshing acidity and slightly gritty tannins , good length with grafite and tobacco stained finish . This is showing well and is probably at peak at the moment , no rush as it will stay here for another 8-10 years or so . — 4 days ago

Cadet d'Oc Merlot 2021

This is actually really not a bad drop. Can’t remember where I bought it, but it is absolutely a good purchase. I am pretty sure I bought it at EDEKA. — 5 months ago

Château Moulin du Cadet

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

2019 vintage. Previous owner Alain Mouiex (also Château Fonroque) sold this tiny (less than 3 hectares) estate to the owners of Château Sansonnet, Cadet Soutard, Villemaurine and Harmonie in 2015, the Lefévère family. Tasting this excellent 2019, it seems that Marie-Bénédicte Lefévère is doing a great job here. Made from 100% Merlot, it is lush and restrained at the same time. Ripe, layered fruit, fresh acidity, and a distinctive minerality make the 14,5% alcohol go unnoticed. Excellent value too, highly recommended. — 9 months ago

Nice! I have a couple bottles of this in the cellar. Drink now, or wait? Thoughts?

Hard to resist now, but I believe it will further improve

Tesseron Estate Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2019

2019 vintage. Sampled via Coravin. Dark-fruited nose. Medium/medium-heavy body. Nose a preamble for the brooding plum, cherry, cassis, blackberry and blueberry. Noticeable tannins afoot but not on Terminator-dodging/avoidance terms. From the property previously owned by the late, great, one and only Robin Williams. New owners Château Pontet-Canet BDX peeps named the new venture after the middle names of Robin Williams’ children. Cool. Structure definitely hovering with that dark fruit and extremely well made effort. Not gratuitous in any way. Need to stash a bottle and reconvene in 2035. Not your usual, high-end, Napa cab. 03.12.25. — a month ago

Nice backstory to this wine, @Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego. I’ll have a little sniff around for the wine. Robin Williams was a brilliant human being. I miss him for sure. Dead Poets Society was the nudge that got me back in Uni. That film (and his acting) had a huge influence on me…
