Domaine de Saint-Guirons Pauillac 2012 750 ML

A century later, Pontet-Canet was included in the famous 1855 classification, thereby confirming its membership among the elite of the M?doc. This privileged position did not go unnoticed by one of the most important Bordeaux shippers of the time, Herman Cruse, who bought the estate in 1865. He built new cellars, modernised the winemaking facilities, and established the wine’s reputation around the world. The Cruse family owned Pontet-Canet for 110 years, until another shipper (from Cognac this time), Guy Tesseron, acquired it in 1975.
