Le Pin--Vintage 1990
Pomerol. Château-bottled
Tasting note: This is among the most profound Le Pins made to date. The wine exhibits a dense, dark ruby/plum color, a spectacular, hedonistic aromatic profile consisting of exotic spices, jammy kirsch and other black fruits intermixed with lavish quantities of pain grille. On the palate, the wine is a velvety-textured fruit bomb with layers of concentration, fabulous ripeness, copious glycerin, and well-integrated sweet tannin. It is a decadently rich, voluptuously-textured, full-bodied wine that is impossible to resist, even though it is still an infant in terms of development. Anticipated maturity: Now-2012. Last tasted 12/96. 98 points. Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book 3rd Edition, January 1998
