Ray Jordan’s Verdict on Ponting Wines
These are the first wines under the Ponting label. It’s a solid range offering good value.
Ponting "First Session" Sauvignon Blanc 2020
Pungent crunchy and classically savvy from the Adelaide Hills. Lots of vibrant passionfruit characters here. Nice little wine. 90/100 | Shop Online Now
Ponting "Mowbray Boy" Pinot Noir 2019
Light savoury red cherry fruit with a nice infusion of oak. Light boded but with excellent palate length. 91/100 | Shop Online Now
Ponting "The Pinnacle" Shiraz 2017
Most appealing McLaren Vale shiraz with the dark chocolatey plumy fruit well to the fore. Nice tannin and oak combination. Could drink a bit of this. 91/100 | Shop Online Now
Ponting "Close of Play" Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Has the soft supple and smooth medium bodied that has made Langhorne Creek so popular. Lots of red berry and a lick of cedary oak. 91/100 | Shop Online Now
