Plum and dark berry notes with a hint of graphite, cedar and minerality. Soft and silky on the palate with a medium finish.

Blackberry, cassis, soft tannins, silky. Drinks FAR better than it should. Delicious.

Superb 2nd wine of Pichon-Baron @ £36 in top year & fab for money 👍 Great now & will sure improve! Unusually high Merlot 👀

🍇 60% Merlot & 40% Cab S

🍷 Opaque black ruby

👃 Refined aromas of soggy earth & leaves, wet crushed minerals, pencil lead shavings galore, smokey oak, dark plump plum & spiced black & blue berries

👄 Med body of creamy smooth mocha infused vibrant dark fruits galore w/ fine dry tannins

🎯 Long mocha, liquorice & dark berry touch dry mineral infused finish that goes on & on 😃

Dried flowers, black tea, blackcurrant, and marzipan. Has a similar mouthfeel to when you take a first bite of persimmon. Great second wine of Pichon Baron.

Initial hints of prune but subdued after being decanted. Floral tones and with walnut flavor. Light and chewy.

Prunes, cranberries and plums in the fruit. As it opens up its smooth with pleasant tannins. Floral and mineral notes as well. Enjoyed it.
