The 2016 is out. It’s real and it’s spectacular. The past couple vintages have been enjoyable but a notch below. This one knocks it out of the park but it has to be your thing. Shows TONS of leather, mushroom, bacon fat. Lingering finish of iron. There quite simply is no better value out there than Pontificis - even in down years. Period. $7 at Trader Joe’s.

This is a very enjoyable left bank Bordeaux. Harsh on the palate with dark fruits and lots of earth and vegetable notes.

Needs a couple of hours to open up properly and show hugh tannins.

Still young and unbalanced, but already enjoyable even by itself.

This 7 year old will need at least 5 years of bottle time to mature properly.

This is not from a good vintage, but it is showing a lot of power. Finesse will show up in about 10 years.

A blend of mainly Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and light Petite Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

89 points.
