Château Pontet-Canet, grand cru classé de Pauillac

Château Pontet-Canet is a great Pauillac wine, 5th Grand Cru classified in the 1855 classification of Médoc wines. Its history began in 1705 when Jean-François de Pontet bought a few acres of land north of the village of Pauillac to create a vineyard and then added plots of land to a place called Canet. The Château changed hands in 1865 when Herman Cruse, a wine merchant, bought the property and the Cruse family kept it for more than a century, until 1975, when it was taken over by Guy Tesseron, a cognac merchant whose family is still the owner today.

Since 1989, Alfred Tesseron and his team have been converting the estate to organic farming. In 2004, a first biodynamic trial was carried out on 14 hectares and the estate was entirely converted to biodynamics a few years later. Château Pontet-Canet's wines have been certified organic by Ecocert and biodynamic by Biodyvin for the entire vineyard since 2010 and by Demeter since 2014.

Château Pontet-Canet is located in the commune of Pauillac and the vineyard covers 81 hectares. The terroir of Pontet-Canet is the "Plateau", a ridge of Garonne gravel from the Günz that rests on a limestone base, a lean and well-drained soil perfectly adapted to the different grape varieties of the great Pauillac wines : the depth and complexity brought by the Cabernet Sauvignon and the finesse with the Cabernet Franc planted in the center of the hilltop. Merlot is present with a few vines on the outskirts of the plateau on clay-gravelly soils, sometimes more calcareous, and Petit-Verdot with spicy aromas occupies 3 plots on the edge of the hilltop.
