Un très beau St-Aubin avec cette signature des vins de PYCM, très minérale entre autres, tout en ayant une richesse et rondeur typique du millésime mais sans lourdeur, des saveurs franches et intenses avec une très belle longueur, vraiment très bien. 91-92

Superb St-Aubin with this PYCM signature, mineral driven with a certain richness and roundness typical of that vintage, but without being too heavy, nice length, gorgeous and showing no rush to drink up this 2015. — 2 years ago

2019 vintage. This estate is on a hot streak. Another winner, this is an elegant,concentrated , and profound Saint-Emilion, with a silky texture and terrific length. Probably the best value among the Premier Grands Crus Classés these days. — 7 months ago

K&L notes as follows, Grand Pontet is an interesting property, positioned in the neighborhood of other stars of the appellation such as Châteaux Canon, Beau-Séjour-Bécot and Clos Fourtet. It is, however, a small estate, a mere 14 hectares, and its prices are much better than some of its more prestigious neighbors. In 1980 it was purchased by Gerard and Dominique Bécot, owners of the neighboring Beau-Séjour-Bécot. They have applied the same high standards to both Châteaux in their possession, and their winemaking team crafts Grand Pontet alongside the Beau-Séjour-Bécot wines. Recently purchased in 2021 by Domaines Clarence Dillon (Haut-Brion, La Mission Haut-Brion, et al.), the property was combined with and incorporated into Château Quintus. Full-bodied and luscious, this Grand Pontet is laden with ripe blackberry fruits, savory tobacco, licorice notes, and ripe, softened tannins. It’s seamless and bold, not shy. It’s going to require something decadent to pair with, such as filet mignon or some other black-tie dish with plenty of flavor and rich umami presence. — 2 years ago

Comme toujours très beau, du fruit blanc, des notes très légèrement beurrées et une petite touche de bois perceptible compte tenu surement de la jeunesse du vin, bel équilibre entre une acidité bien dosée et une certaine rondeur, sans être riche, très bien mais à attendre selon moi. 90-91

As usual gorgeous wine, white fruit,a very slight buttery and oaky touch, mothing too much, nice balance between acidity and roundness, nothing too heavy, very nice but needs some time in the cellar in my humble opinion. — 2 years ago
