Le Pin 1990

Le Pin 1990 is one of the great names of Pomerol, a wine that combines rarity, prestige, and extraordinary concentration in a way few Bordeaux can match. Produced in tiny quantities from one of the smallest and most famous estates in the region, it has become a benchmark for opulence, seamless texture, and collectible value. First released only in 1979, Le Pin is remarkably young by Bordeaux standards, yet it quickly rose to legendary status.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, the 1990 shows a deep ruby-purple core with only the faintest hint of age at the rim. The bouquet is remarkably expressive, offering layers of Asian spice, kirsch, fig, blackberry, cherry, and smoky toasted oak, all unfolding with impressive intensity and elegance. On the palate, it is plush, full-bodied, and deeply concentrated, with a silky, glycerin-rich texture that gives the wine a sense of effortless completeness. The fruit remains vivid and ripe, supported by remarkable harmony and depth, while the finish suggests there is still significant aging potential ahead. This is a wine built for long evolution, and one that continues to gain complexity over time.

Viininvalmistus
Le Pin comes from a tiny 2-hectare estate in Pomerol, a terroir known for producing some of Bordeaux’s most sensual and expressive wines. The vineyard’s small scale allows for exceptionally low yields and highly selective harvesting, helping preserve concentration and purity in the fruit. While detailed vinification methods are not provided here, the style clearly emphasizes careful handling and precision to achieve the wine’s signature richness and seamless structure.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
Best enjoyed with refined dishes that can match its depth and texture, such as roast pigeon, duck breast, filet of beef, truffle-infused dishes, or slow-braised lamb. Serve at around 16–18°C. Given its maturity and complexity, decanting is recommended if opening now, but handle gently to preserve the wine’s delicate aromatic layers.

Tuottaja
Le Pin is one of Bordeaux’s most iconic and exclusive producers, despite not being a classified château. Founded in 1979 after Jacques Thienpont purchased the tiny estate in Pomerol, it quickly gained a reputation for producing some of the region’s most sought-after wines. With annual production often limited to just 400–600 cases, Le Pin has achieved near-mythical status and is widely regarded as one of the most expensive and prestigious wines in the world.
