Description

One bottle of this well known Pauillac. Aggregate critic score 93/100.

A couple of recent tasting notes from Cellartracker:

8/2/2018 - Quiet Lion Likes this wine: 95 Points

Nice upon decanting but after 90 minutes became full and silky. Classic Pauillac with slightly tart, palate-filling fruit, light on earthiness, good balance.

7/12/2018 - SimonG wrote: 92 Points

1995 Bordeaux: Blackcurrant leaf, slightly herbal. A slightly dry edge to the finish. Quite a bit here. Savoury, but cool fruit and some depth. Lovely. ****

Also Parker:

In 1995, fifty percent of the crop was cut off the vine in a vendange verte (the culling of fruit in order to lower production and increase the concentration of the remaining grapes). That resulted in one of the top dozen wines of the 1995 vintage. This wine was terrific on each of the four occasions I tasted it during the last two weeks of March. The color is an opaque purple. The knock-out set of aromatics offers up smoky, sweet, black-cherry and cassis scents intermingled with hints of coffee and herbs. This ripe, full-bodied wine exhibits outstanding texture, layers of flavor, and a low acid, firmly delineated, moderately tannic finish. I would rate this awesome example of Pichon-Lalande higher than both the outstanding 1989 and the uninspiring, light-weight 1990. Although it will be hard to resist its charms, give it 3-4 years of cellaring after its release and drink it over the subsequent 20+ years. It is a knock-out 1995!

Score: 95

And Jancis Robinson:

Crackling, dense wine with lots of fruit and lots of lift. Very full and bloody and ripe. Sumptuous. Well constructed but still very young. Chewy. Lovely wine. Drink 2009-2024. Date tasted 25th Oct 05.
