Le Pin's evolved 1997 displays complex aromatics consisting of roasted coffee, smoke, Provencal herbs, sweet kirsch liqueur, and black cherry fruit. In the mouth, the wine is round, with a velvety texture, low acidity, and excellent concentration and length. It is a succulent, juicy, captivating style of wine.
Shows a slightly pruny character, but has some good plummy fruit. Full and round, soft and velvety. Long.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 18/20 points.
