2003 Chateau Pipeau, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 1×1.5L

Robert Parker 88

Beginning to reveal a touch of dry tannins in the finish, this opulent, medium-bodied 2003 fruit-bomb still offers plenty of black cherry and black currant aromas and flavors. Lush, round, heady and succulent, it should be consumed over the near-term because of the tannin issue in the finish. [Robert M. Parker, Jr., 28/08/2014]
