Château Grand-Pontet (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Popped and poured, this is clearly open for business. This charming St. Emilion offers licorice, espresso bean and chocolate covered plums with hints of boysenberry in the nose. Round tannins and plush textures make this even better. Even though the wine is 15% ABV, there is no sensation of heat in the fennel and black cherry filled finish. 5,206 Views Tasted May 21, 2013 |

Château Grand-Pontet (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Fully mature, this lusciously textured wine shows off its dark plums, licorice, black cherry, dark chocolate and floral charms with ease.
