Tom, Hi...
Following is my most recent tasting note for the wine in question.
Best
Rogov
Chateau Pontet-Canet, Pauillac, 1995: Despite fine barrel tastings and three subsequent tastings, this one seems to get better every time I taste it. Full-bodied, with generous but well-integrated tannins and just the right hints of sweet cedar, this luxurious wine boasts deep and elegant berry, black cherry and spring flowers on the first attack, those yielding nicely to bitter-sweet chocolate and black cherries on the long finish. Drinking well now but best from 2010-2020. Score 93. (Re-tasted but not blind 4 Jun 2007)
