Medium bright red crimson. Towering, but still tight, black fruit, briar, cedar and pencil lead aroma. Medium tight red fruit on the palate with a long tight tannic finish.
Full deep red/purple. big round red fruit with hints of heat and acidity. tight tannic acidic red fruit. Just the slightest hint of cork? This bottle seemed like it was stripped compared to the last one I had.
Bright red color. Big candied red;black fruit with clear briar and graphite hints. Mmmmn, nice big bold black fruit on the palate with great concentration and a long finish with coffee notes.
A throw in for this dinner - the lowest rated Le Pin ever from Parker... Pale red/crimson color. Rich red cherry briar bugundian aromas - sweetness, spiciness, and pepper. Rich red cherry and spice on the palate. Not what you expect from a bordeaux, but tastes like a really nice high quality burg!
Full red color. Big red and black fruit with clear spiciness on the palate. Rich black fruit with coffee notes on the palate. Nice richness and concentration.
