Falstaff
Deep dark ruby, purple reflections, delicate bright rim. Fine black cherries, a hint of fully ripe plums, candied orange zest. Juicy, powerful, round and harmonious, supporting tannins, chocolatey touch on the finish, very good length, safe ageing potential.
VertdeVin
The nose is fruity and offers freshness, a fine richness, a very fine power as well as precision. It reveals notes of ripe/fresh blackberry, raspberry and small notes of cornflower associated with touches of fleshy strawberry, violet, gravels as well as very fine hints of sweet spices and a subtle hint of vanilla. The palate is fruity, fresh and offers richness full of balance, gourmandize, fullness as well as fat, a good freshness, a beautiful fleshy/juicy/aerial fruit, a certain controlled power and a fine deepness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy/pulpy blackberry, fleshy/juicy raspberry and small notes of small blue fruits associated with touches of violet, cardamom, nutmeg as well as hints of tonka bean and a subtle hint of toasted hazelnut. Gourmandize, sapidity on the finish/persistence. A very discreet hint of chocolate and caramelization on the persistence. A wine full of freshness, a controlled richness and aerial.
Wine Enthusiast
Rich in both structure and fruit, this wine has ripe tannins and a full, generous texture that is given shape by full-bodied, black-fruit flavors. From the northern part of Pauillac, the wine is good for medium-term aging. Drink from 2023.
Robert Parker Wine Advocate
The 2018 Pibran is a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon and 46% Merlot, matured for 18 months in barriques, 50% new and 50% one year old. Deep garnet-purple in color, it comes skipping out of the glass with bright, cheerful scents of Morello cherries, mulberries and wild blueberries, giving way to a core of cassis, dark chocolate and violets, with a waft of woodsmoke. Medium-bodied, the palate is delicately styled with fantastic freshness and fine-grained tannins supporting the crunchy black fruit layers, finishing long and lifted.
