Le Pin 2006

Le Pin

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 18.5

Le Pin, named after the solitary pine tree in this tiny 5 hectare plot, is an exceptionally low yielding piece of land in the heart of Pomerol, owned by the Thienponts since the late ’70s. The tiny production lends to the cult status it has achieved.

Tasted blind. Dark ruby – shaded. Intense and pretty rich on the nose. Solid and juicy. Lots of minerals and life there. Distinctly superior wine. Zappy dry end. Really solid with some mintiness.

Robert M. Parker, Jr.

Exotic, as it often can be, with super-ripe mulberry and black cherry fruit to the point of near-kirsch liqueur, with notes of licorice, truffle, and forest floor, this is a full-bodied, concentrated wine with a slight tannic bite to the finish. There is good freshness, depth, and power, and despite the flamboyant aromatics, this wine needs a good 3-5 years of cellaring and should keep for 15 or more years.
