  "This wine is rich, with generous black plum and berry fruits. It has a structure that is full, ripe and that will sustain the fruitiness of the wine over many years. The sensation is of velvet, with some force behind it. This remarkable wine will develop well over the medium term and then age for many years. Drink from 2022."

  "You really want to drink this the minute you taste it with chocolate, walnut and cedar aromas and flavors. Full to medium body, very refined and flavorful. Seamless structure. Stone, currant leaf and tobacco. Why wait?"

  "Already showing its tobacco, forest floor and cassis filled charms, this elegantly styled, forward, already drinkable wine offers sweet, fresh, plums, cocoa and smooth textures in the finish. Give it 2-4 years and this should be even more charming."

  "For such a challenging year, that is a real success, and I place it above the 2012 if you are looking to open now (in fact I would strongly suggest opening now, as this is not a vintage to age). There are some lovely autumnal fruits on display, with delicacy and charm, and plenty of Pauillac character, if a more tempered, subdued version. Blackberry rather than cassis - there is juice rather than concentration here, and tobacco leaf rather than cigar box, but plenty of sage, white pepper and graphite. Enjoyable and deftly handled."

  Decanter
  "When tasted from barrel, it counted among the best of this challenging vintage. Not as intense a nose as the preceding wines, looking more evolved than the 2010 despite three years younger. Although in a 'lower gear', one enjoys tobacco and cedar aromatics with red and dark fruit. Medium finish. Aged 50% new oak , 35% amphora."

  The Wine Advocate
  "Medium to deep garnet colored, the 2013 Pontet-Canet is evolving into tobacco, new leather and dried mulberries scents with a core of kirsch, baked plums and cigar box plus a waft of Indian spices. Medium-bodied, elegantly styled and wonderfully refreshing in the mouth, it has a solid line of grainy tannins and loads of mineral sparks on the finish."

  Weinwisser
  "Zackig am Gaumen hat er eine transparente, schwarze Frucht nach Maulbeeren und Heidelbeeren sowie Lakritze und ist unterlegt von jungem Gerbstoff und frischer Säure. Stilistisch sehr burgundisch."

  "Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Ockerrandaufhellung. Mit kandierten Orangenzesten unterlegte Brombeerennote, ein Hauch von Erdbeerkonfitüre, tabakige Würze, feine balsamische Aspekt im Hintergrund, etwas Honig. Mittlere Komplexität, dunkle Waldbeerfrucht, zarte Tannine, wirkt frisch, aber auch etwas weitmaschiger und zugleich leichtfüßiger als sonst, zarte Fruchtsüße im Abgang, mineralischer Touch, ist bereits gut gereift und mit Vergnügen zu trinken."
