The 2010 vintage in Pauillac
Vintage benchmark: 99/100 (appellation benchmark, not a score for this wine)
Vintage character: A dry summer and cool nights concentrated small berries: a benchmark vintage, with dense tannins and a thirty-year aging potential.
Overall reading of the year’s season across Pauillac. An estate can depart from it sharply, in frost or hail years, where two neighbours did not make the same vintage. What this particular wine actually gave is on its technical sheet and in the scores above.
Tasting
This Château Pibran 2010 shows a very intense color, deep, almost black. The fruit develops through nuances of strawberry and rose petals, then well-ripened black fruit. Finesse is favored, the tannins are present and refined. The mid-palate, full and distinguished, gives way to a smooth, refreshing, tonic and noble finish. Here is a great Pauillac, true to type, characterized by its rich and varied terroir
