Tasting Notes

94
Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book (4), December 2003

A dense ruby-colored Le Pin, the 1995 offers up aromas of lead pencil, roasted nuts, smoke, spice, fruitcake, and black cherries intermixed with white chocolate. Luscious and full-bodied, with low acidity, but plenty of grip and tannin in the finish, this wine, with its abundant cola, kirsch, an black raspberry flavors, is revealing far more structure since bottling than I did in cask. It appears to be every bit as structured and tannic as the 1996. The 1995 Le Pin will take a few years to come around.
