Domaine Canet Valette

Etienne Sauzet

Champ Canet Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2014

2014 vintage. Decanted and tasted multiple times at multiple temps from 30 mins open-3 hrs open and 45-60 degrees. Color somewhere between golden and Chartreuse yellow. Plenty of ripeness with remaining acidity crawling along the palate baseline. Do not see this improving but surmise it can hold steady at this mature Burgundy status for another 3-4 years. 02.22.25. — 17 hours ago

What better way to watch the Dutchies' opening game in Qatar with Canet Alternative. Owned by Dutch family Lemstra-blake, they have a small plot that yields just two barrels and results in an elegant mineral driven wine in the style of Burgundy — 2 years ago

Château Haut la Valette

Cuvée Caractère Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2018

This was number 2 of 4 from Costco package. Pleasantly surprised. Agreebwith the fact it needs a little time to breath. Opened well. Nice mouth feel, dry and smooth. Dark cherry and raspberry. — 3 years ago

Château Pontet-Canet

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Very earthy and complex. There was considerable depth to the wine. It was excellent now but you tell this one should be a treasure for many more years. Blueberries, cassis and a bit of a smokiness. — a month ago

Neal never stops impressing!!! Would have guessed Bordeaux all the way. 1hr+ decant. Nose of dark cherries, cedar, and menthol. Blue and black fruit on the palate with well integrated alcohol. Medium depth and medium plus finish. Reminds me of Chateau Pontet-Canet but 1/5 of the price. Neal rocks!! — 3 years ago

PnP’d. Should have given an hour decant. Medium red color. Is a cross between Pinot, Cab, and a Spanish red. Mix the Aubert Pinot I had the other night and Pontet Canet and you get close. Bright red fruit with plenty of oak. Perfect drinking age!! What a great gift and surprise!! Thanks Malcolm! — 4 years ago
