Ripe dark plum, black cherry and a hint of fig roll through Chateau Le Pin 2020, wrapped in creamy spice and a touch of floral lift that speaks clearly of its warm, sun‑filled year. The palate feels plush yet finely shaped, with powdery tannins and a long, chocolate‑tinged finish that makes this a hedonistic but still poised expression of Pomerol.

Château Le Pin is an ultra-rare, 100% Merlot Pomerol from the tiny, gravel-and-clay “crasse de fer” soils of Catusseau, crafted by the Thienpont family in minute quantities that often make it one of the world’s most expensive red wines. Known for its sensual, velvety texture and intensely pure, exotic fruit character, it helped define the modern “garage wine” aesthetic while still expressing a singular, top-plateau Pomerol terroir.
