Le Pin 2014 is a distinguished Pomerol wine crafted predominantly from Merlot, with a smaller proportion of Cabernet Franc. The nose reveals an intricate tapestry of black cherry, truffle, leather and subtle earthiness. On the palate, it exhibits a medium-bodied structure with plush tannins and a notable freshness. Flavours of ripe red fruits, hints of spice and a lingering finish characterise its profile. Le Pin is produced from a small vineyard renowned for its exceptional terroir, overseen by the Thienpont family, who have been cultivating the estate since the 1970s.
