    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    The good news is that the August rains favoured relatively good volumes at Le Pin and the fine September weather ensured full ripeness. The bad news is that there will still only be a small amount of this aromatically kaleidoscopic beauty to go round. Great density and definition on the nose and the usual Burgundian character reminiscent of a great Richebourg. The sweet red cherry and plum fruit is dark and pure, complex and concentrated, with fine gravely tannins, all charged with vibrant freshness and an elegant creaminess that caresses the palate. Stunning length and delicate minerals on the finish. 100% Merlot.

    Stephen Tanzer,
    Vinous
    (12.5% alcohol) Bright, deep ruby-red. Captivating aromas of black raspberry, coffee, smoke, minerals and menthol. Juicy, silky and aromatic in the mouth, with a lovely light touch. Very elegantly styled wine if a bit youthfully tight and on the light side for this property. Finishes with hints of herbs and spices and noteworthy subtle length. I did not find the depth and dimension of a great year but I should note that many early tasters were more impressed by this wine than I was.
