Note di degustazione
The 1995 Pichon Baron was an ex-château bottle that had been reconditioned at the estate. This has a beautiful bouquet, a mixture of red and black fruit, cedar and mint, the latter becoming prominent with aeration. A friend mentioned rooibos tea and I immediately clock that scent. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, very pure and slightly ferrous in style. I have to say that this bottle is superior to previous ones, more vigorous with greater weight and less evolution towards the finish. Quite sweet on the aftertaste, it is simply, banally, just delicious. Drinking perfectly now. Tasted at the 1995 Bordeaux off-line at Piccolino in London.

Plenty of spice, tannins, structure, frame, tobacco, cigar box, very much old school undergrowth and pencil lead, slate, essence of Pauillac. A little soft through the mid palate, with some chewy tannins on the finish, but you would be so happy to open and share this. Served from magnum. Don't wait too long but this is one to look out for right now. 80% new oak.
This is surprisingly delicate and fine now with currant and spice character and hints nuts. It is full body with refined texture and a beautiful finish.
