Biodynamics has reached the absolute top of the world. 2010 100 Parker points for Château Pontet-Canet. Since the top vintages in 2015 and 2016, many tasters have seen the winery on par with the Premiers Grands Crus, some of which are still much more expensive. This trend seems unbroken: the coming 2019 vintage was sold out in the Primeur store within 3 hours. Until it hits the market, it's definitely worth looking into the 2017 more catchy. In the last few decades, the vintages with a “-7” at the end were mostly characterized by heavy rainfall. In 2017 it was first the spring frost that shaped the vintage, but fortunately only led to comparatively manageable damage at Pontet-Canet. Then a thoroughly positive summer for the development of the vines. Still rain in September, but ultimately healthy grapes with perfect physiological ripeness. Probably not as big as the previous years 2016 and 2015, but to be classified higher than 2014. Delivery in a wooden box of 6.
