Description

The 2015 Chateau Pibran wine is ample, juicy and absolutely delicious, all qualities that make it an excellent choice for drinking now and over the next few years. This Pauillac wine has floral notes add lift to the racy, red stone fruit. The 2015 Chateau Pibran wine is a blend of equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon brought up in 50% new oak, the 2015 Château Pibran is a beautiful Pauillac that does well in a vintage which can be erratic for this appellation. This Chateau Pibran wine has a very classic notes of cassis, tobacco leaf, lead pencil shavings, and spice give way to a medium to full-bodied, elegant red that has fine tannin, nicely integrated acidity, and top-notch purity of fruit. This is a tiny estate owned by Pichon-Longueville Baron, and it’s a Pauillac well worth checking out. I suspect it’s also a great value and should keep for 15-20 years.
