Looks much more evolved than the 2016. Gamey, quite interesting nose. Nicely balanced even if almost scarily developed. This would be fun to drink already! Attractive stony note and, just, not too ripe. Impressive persistence. (JR)

I found the 2015 Grand Pontet to be hard to read, with lots of oak and chocolate, yet also lots of fruit. I just never really came together in the glass and is a head-scratcher. I think it will settle down with 2-3 years of bottle age and certainly has potential.

Dark crimson. Racy and rich on the nose. Very sweet. But with good energy there too. Lots to chew on. (JR)
