Neal Martin

The 2019 Le Pin is more oak-driven on the nose than its peers, creamy black cherries and blueberry fruit, lacking the intellect that one might have expected at this stage. The palate is medium-bodied with a lot of oak tannins, creamy with a torrefactory, singed leather element towards the finish. I don't quite understand this Le Pin at the moment and wonder how it will evolve? A great wine being outmaneuvered by its peers at the moment. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.

100% Merlot. Barrel sample. Initially a little tight but opens to a burgundian, red-berry nuance, the integrated oak adding chocolate and orange-zest notes. Rich and sweet on the palate, the texture remarkably luxurious with an abundance of fine, silky tannins. Still plenty of drive, though, and a lingering point of freshness. Balanced despite the opulence. Seductive indeed. (JL)
