Château Le Pin

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2006

Wow a treat! Color is a dark beautiful cranberry. On the nose: essence of dark fruit and sweet floral jump from the glass with primary notes of roasted meat, wet forest floral and subtle chocolate mint. Taste: silky smooth and luscious coating the palate with red fruit, cedar, earthy soil, crushed rock and minerals with a medium plus spice dark chocolate finish. Yummy for sure and wonderful way to start off the first Friday of the new year!! — 2 months ago

Côtes de Bordeaux Castillon Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Ming L
9.1

First vintage under the ownership of Le Pin. The nose starts off with abundant of blueberry, blackberry and cassis, and then turns to warm spices, black pepper, graphite, and hint of cigar box. Medium to full elegant body. Bitter sweet long finish.
Just entering its drinking window. Fantastic value.

@Byron Hewett No, is that a National tasting opportunity? I'll have to ask our officers if it was something we could have availed ourselves to...

Felt privileged to get an early taste of this hidden gem at a Thienpont tasting. Served from magnums. Too young, obviously, to show it's full potential.
