Jean-Fran\u00e7ois de Pontet, royal governor of the M\u00e9doc, combined several vineyard plots in Pauillac, in the 18th century. Years later, his descendants added neighboring vines in a place called Canet. This was the beginning of one of the largest estates in the M\u00e9doc.
\nA century later, Ch\u00e2teau Pontet-Canet was included in the famous classification of 1855, thus confirming its status as a member of the M\u00e9doc elite. This privileged position did not go unnoticed by one of the most important Bordeaux n\u00e9gociants of the time, Herman Cruse, who purchased the estate in 1865. He built new wineries, modernized the winemaking facilities, and established the wine's reputation around the world. The Cruse family owned Pontet-Canet for 110 years, until another n\u00e9gociant (from Cognac this time), Guy Tesseron, acquired it in 1975.
\nFor more than two centuries Pontet-Canet has been owned by three different families. Today it is run by Alfred Tesseron with his niece Melanie (daughter of Gerard Tesseron) who is a descendant of Guy Tesseron. Thirty years after their arrival in Pauillac, the Tesseron family is proud to know that they have gradually replanted some of the vineyards and renovated the buildings and winemaking facilities.<\/h4>","protected":false},"featured_media":11576,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[92,89],"product_tag":[398],"class_list":["post-11392","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-bordeaux","product_cat-francia","product_tag-chateau-smith-haut-lafitte","pa_bodega-chateau-pontet-canet","pa_cosecha-325","pa_score-99-james-suckling","pa_tipo-de-vino-red-blend","pa_varietal-cabernet-franc","pa_varietal-cabernet-sauvignon","pa_varietal-merlot","pa_varietal-petit-verdot","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/internationalwinemore.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/11392","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/internationalwinemore.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/internationalwinemore.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/internationalwinemore.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11392"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/internationalwinemore.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11576"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/internationalwinemore.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11392"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/internationalwinemore.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=11392"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/internationalwinemore.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=11392"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/internationalwinemore.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=11392"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
