1982 Chateau Le Pin - Pomerol - 1 Bottle (0.75L)

The color is a dense ruby/garnet with some amber at the edge. The soaring aromatics consist of melted caramel, espresso, Asian spice, and sweet, almost overripe prune, black currant, and fig. In the mouth it is layered, lavishly concentrated, and very full-bodied and sweet (from ripe fruit, not sugar.) The wine seems very low in acidity, but the tannins remain, although they are very ripe and integrated. This is a decadent, extravagantly rich style of wine that is nearly over the top. LE PIN 1982 Le Pin is one of the finest Bordeaux wines as well as one of the priciest wines in the world. Yet, it’s unclassified and its first vintage was only a few decades ago. The first vintage of Le Pin made its debut with the 1979 vintage, from that point forward the reputation of the wine and the corresponding price has risen to ever-higher heights. Le Pin is an inimitable wine, it sits with Petrus at the very highest echelons of Right Bank winemaking, but in truth, there is really no parallel to Le Pin, it is sui generis Please see the photos for condition and don’t forget to leave us a positive feedback if you are satisfied!!!
