Description
Le Pin 1995
Pomerol
Good levels, labels damp stained and stained purple by tissue wrapping, owc damp affected
The stunning impact of an all-Merlot wine in a vintage that was made for the grape variety. Le Pin is simply unlike any other Bordeaux, even unlike other top Pomerols. The huge blast of berries and thick, all-enveloping texture of this wine are impressive - absolute, top-of-the-radar stuff. I cannot wait to try it with a dish of lacquered duck with grilled figs!
