Typical Hirsch style - red fruits on the front end with a dusty finish. Nice, but prefer the Bohan-Dillon at half the price. — 4 years ago

Picked this 2017 pinot up on a recent trip to Dillon Beach. Hints of white caps and sunshine with a light fog rolling in! Wear a light jacket and enjoy. — 6 years ago

3L 1990 Domaine Clarence Dillon La Mission Haut Brion. Big group dinner at NMD. Drank this alongside 1995 Shafer Hillside Select in 3L. Neither was really decanted and we should have. This was initially much better, but both went really funky soon after. — 8 years 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. — 4 years ago

Much more refined than the Bohan-Dillon and somehow still a bruiser. Just my speed, just not sure it’s worth $80. — 6 years ago
