Flowers, currants, and tobacco are what you initially find at the core here. On the palate, the wine is sweet, chewy, fresh and fruity. Normally, Pibran is a strict, rustic styled wine. But with the 2022, the fruit delivers more sweetness, lift, length and softness than I have ever seen here. This is a steal of deal for savvy, Pauillac wine buyers. The wine is made from blending From a blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon and 45% Merlot.14.8% ABV, 3.58 pH. Drink from 2028-2042. 90-91 Pts.

94 vvPunkte / Ein feiner Duft, mit viel Floralität steigt hier aus dem Glas, Kirschen, Cassis, rauchige Noten, sehr dezente Röstnoten, das Barrique kaum wahrnehmbar. Im Gaumen klar und rein, delikate Frucht, sehr elegant, feinkörniges Tannin, perfekt dosierte Säure, der Wein hat kein Gramm Fett, baut dennoch Druck auf und hallt lange nach, rote Früchte und eine feine Würze im Rückaroma. Einmal mehr mit viel Eleganz und Präzision. Top Value! (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 auf Château Pichon Longueville Baron) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch

En Primeur campaign for the 2022 vintage Day Four (Bordeaux): Plummy fruits proves quite black hued but fresh with a little creamy underpin and sweet spice, fresh earth and a tiny fruit tea note. Medium plus intensity acidity, again plummy fruits with those fruit tea notes, woody and grapy tannins are drying, slightly coarse and a little chocolate note on the finished by a little alcohol warmth. Hmm
