Falstaff 
Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Verhalten, dunkle Beerenfrucht, reife Pflaumen sind unterlegt, ein Hauch von Edelholz. Kraftvoll, schokoladig, reife Kirschen, gute Frische, integrierte, präsente Tannine, Nougat im Nachhall, gute Länge, sicheres Entwicklungspotenzial.

Neal Martin 
The 2020 Grand Pontet has a more floral bouquet than previous years, pressed violets and iris petals complementing the blackberry and blueberry fruit; this displays commendable precision. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-boned tannins and crisp acidity. A decidedly more classic Grand-Pontet compared to recent vintages, conveying commendable salinity toward the finish. This is worth seeking out. 

Wine Advocate 
The deep garnet-purple colored 2020 Grand-Pontet opens with pronounced notions of fresh blueberries, blackberry pie and Morello cherries, plus suggestions of chocolate mint, star anise and unsmoked cigars. The medium to full-bodied palate (14.43% alcohol) is packed with crunchy blue and black fruits, supported by velvety tannins and soft acidity, finishing long and spicy.
