The Château Pontet-Canet vineyard covers 81 hectares, planted on clay-gravel soils typical of the Pauillac appellation. This unique terroir, combined with an oceanic climate, promotes optimal grape ripeness.

Owner and history

Currently managed by Jean-Michel Comme, Château Pontet-Canet is in the hands of a passionate family who have successfully combined tradition and innovation. Since their arrival, they have implemented sustainable viticultural practices, integrating organic farming into their philosophy. The estate team is also committed to the pursuit of excellence, ensuring that every stage of production respects the authenticity and quality of the wines.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Château Pontet-Canet is an alchemy of tradition and modernity. The grapes, harvested by hand, are carefully sorted to retain only the finest. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, allowing for precise temperature management. Aging occurs in oak barrels, a significant proportion of which are new, to impart complexity and structure to the wine. This meticulous process, combined with attention to the finesse of the tannins, results in a wine of great elegance and beautiful aromatic depth.
