Château Le Pin 2014
£4,020.69 (Inc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / Denmark
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2014 Le Pin has a really quite lovely bouquet. Tasted alongside its 'cousin' Vieux-Château-Certan, it is more exotic and outgoing, yet it maintains fine delineation and complexity with upfront blueberry and black cherry fruit, quite a noticeable menthol note emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet and embracing entry, caressing in texture thanks to the succulent tannin, though these are counterpoised by the silver bead of acidity. There is just a touch of salted licorice that pops up on the finish. To quote Alexandre Thienpont (since Jacques and Fiona had to be in Belgium), this is a 'classic' Le Pin, though I feel it will be overshadowed by the 2015.
