Description

2015 was the debut vintage of Château Pontet Labrie, another limited-quantity single vineyard wine made by Jonathan Maltus. It is a superbly defined, rich and silky blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc that is perfect for drinking young but has enough textural fibre and complexity to age for up to 15 years.
