Reviewed January 1999Impressively concentrated with plum and earthy character, if a bit rustic and fat in style. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a medium finish.
Notes
We were very impressed with the 1996 Clement Pichon at several tastings. 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 10% Cab Franc. The beautiful nose leads to black cherry and coffee notes. There's plenty of fruit and nice balance, allowing this wine to be enjoyed fairly young or age for several years. It has a nice touch of elegance. Clement Pichon is a familiar name to many that have visited Bordeaux. Located in southern Médoc not far north of the city of Bordeaux, this Château is one of the most beautiful in the region. Planted in 1976, the vineyard is really coming of age.
