2018 CHÂTEAU PIBRAN (SUBSKRIPTION)

Falstaff: 94/100 Punkte
»Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Feine schwarze Kirschen, ein Hauch von vollreifen Pflaumen, kandierte Orangenzesten. Saftig, kraftvoll, rund und harmonisch, tragende Tannine, schokoladiger Touch im Abgang, sehr gute Länge, sicheres Reifepotenzial.« 

James Suckling: 93-94/100 Punkte
»This is a cool and dense Pibran with blueberries and blackcurrants and freshness at the same time. Full body, dusty tannins and a flavorful finish. Solid.«

Wine Spectator: 92-95/100 Punkte 
»Very solid from the start, with dark currant and blackberry compote notes, a graphite grip and a long tobacco- and iron-fueled finish. Very well-defined.«

Decanter: 90/100 Punkte 
»A very tasty, enjoyable Pibran that comes from a cooler site than the main Pichon Baron wine, from gravel soils over a bed of limestone, and always the last for the team to harvest as was the case again in 2018. You can certainly feel the freshness and juice through the dark fruits – a wine that will be limbered up after just four or five years in bottle. 50% new oak. A yield of 37hl/ha. Drinking Window 2024 - 2038« 

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 89-91/100 Punkte 
»The 2018 Pibran is a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon and 46% Merlot, to be aged 18 months in barriques, 50% new and 50% one year old. Very deep purple-black in color, it opens with notes of wild blueberries, fresh black cherries and blackcurrants plus touches of fallen leaves, chargrill and hoisin with a waft of Indian spices. Full-bodied with a solid backing of grainy tannins, it has a voluptuous mid-palate and long, spicy finish.«
