Description

Chateau Le Pin 1996
Pomerol
bsl, lscl, wasl
Bottle (1)

Property from the cellar of a passionate and delightful Texas gent. Almost all wines purchased as futures or winery-direct, and stored in temperature and humidity-controlled cellars.

"Subtle and satisfying. Blackberry and green tobacco aromas follow through to a medium-to-full body, with silky tannins and a medium finish. Delicious." (90 pts. James Suckling, Wine Spectator, April 2008)

"The 1996 Le Pin was the first vintage I ever tasted--blind as part of a Right Bank tasting for "Wine" magazine in 1999. I have tasted this two or three times since then. Showing visible signs of maturity, the 1996 offers mulberry, leather and tertiary aromas. The palate has decent concentration, considering this was never a Right Bank vintage. The tannins feel just a little coarse and it needs more precision on the finish." (91 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, March 2025)
