Critics’ scores and tasting notes
“The depth and intensity give incredible energy in this Le Pin at this stage. The plum, dried flower, bark and fresh mushroom character is unique and it continues on the midpalate and finish. It’s endless and sophisticated with an ethereal nature. Transcendental in many ways. Can’t wait to try it from bottle. Two thirds the normal production. Pure merlot. Magic.”
Located on the Pomerol plateau, Le Pin is an estate acquired in 1979 by Jacques Thienpont. The estate stands out for its extremely small size, with a vineyard divided into 7 plots covering only 2 hectares. Planted on soils combining gravel, clay and sand with a marked presence of iron pan (crasse de fer), the vines are exclusively Merlot, which accounts for 100% of the plantings. The production, deliberately very limited, relies on meticulous work. Vinification takes place in small stainless steel vats, allowing careful monitoring of each lot. Ageing then continues in new barrels for 18 months, contributing to the structure and complexity of the wine. Under the Pomerol appellation, Le Pin embodies a singular expression of its terroir, the result of a tiny vineyard and exacting winemaking.
