    A wine with a strong initial score back during En Primeur, making it interesting to retaste because it may well be lurking in many cellars! It's held up well, a little soft through the mid palate, but this has plenty of spice, and dark brambled fruit character, edges of campfire smoke and chocolate shavings. No need to wait.

    The 2009 Branon has a pure bouquet with black cherries, bilberry and just a touch of boot polish. It feels well defined with nicely integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, juicy and succulent with a nicely detailed, quite peppery finish with a persistent aftertaste. Based on this performance I might well have under-estimated this Pessac-Léognan. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting.
