While celebrating with friends this weekend we had another treat, a 2004 bottle of Pontet-Canet. This Pauillac wine from Bordeaux is historically one of my favourites, although I ran out some years ago and didn't buy any more as the price sky-rocketed back in the 2010's. Anyway, and fortunately, my friends have a much deeper collection than mine and treated us to one of their bottles. Delicious notes of blackcurrent, tobacco and lead, super smooth with a nice red berry finish, you really can't beat a good Bordeaux wine with some age on it, this one was outstanding.
