AN INCREDIBLY RARE PARCEL OF
MAGNUMS OF CHATEAU LE PIN 1995
Property Shipped in October 1995 Directly from the Chateau to the Owner
Le Pin--Vintage 1995
Pomerol
In original wooden cases
Parcel: lots 1290A-1290E
"The 1995 Le Pin appears to be a classic. It displays far better integration of oak, which may be because the wine has terrific concentration and has already soaked up the wood, so its presence is less overt than in the 1994. The wine is medium to full-bodied, with stunning concentration, an opulent, sweet mid-palate, and that layered feel that makes for a decadent and hedonistic mouthful of grape juice. The well-delineated 1995 should mature into one of this estate's great successes, but I doubt that it will equal the quality of the 1982 and the 1983. However, keep in mind that at the same stage of development, this wine is being bestowed a higher rating than given the 1982 and 1983 at similar ages. Like most Le Pins, you can drink these wines exceptionally young, but they put on considerable weight in the bottle with the oak becoming far less aggressive after 7-8 years of cellaring."
