Château Pibran - Pauillac - Red - 2022 :

 

Château Pibran: Pauillac Excellence from the AXA Millésimes Stable

Château Pibran, a distinguished property under the management of AXA Millésimes, benefits directly from the technical expertise of its neighbor, Château Pichon Baron. Situated on Pauillac's famous gravelly slopes, this claret represents the structured elegance and depth of the Left Bank, offering a compelling quality-to-price ratio for the UK wine enthusiast.

Tasting Profile & Vinification

• Colour: A deep, vibrant garnet.
• Aromas: A classic Pauillac nose featuring concentrated black fruit (cassis, blackberry), interwoven with sophisticated notes of lead pencil, cedarwood, and a touch of savory spice.
• Flavour: Full and well-defined, the palate is built on firm yet silky tannins and a juicy core of dark berries. It possesses superb balance, ensuring both immediate enjoyment and a capacity for significant bottle ageing.
• Vinification: Aged in French oak barrels (typically 50% new) for 12 to 18 months, depending on the vintage.

Food Pairing & Decanting

For optimal enjoyment, a younger bottle should be decanted for at least an hour. Serve slightly below room temperature (17°C) alongside a traditional Sunday roast or fine game dishes.
