Ch Picque Caillou 2008 Pessac-Léognan Rouge 16 Drink 2014-22 Paler rim than some. Vivacious, easy, fluid fruit at first but without a really interesting core. Pretty drying tannins on the finish. (JR)

Fresh lemon with a touch of oak spice and very slightly but attractively herbaceous. Constrained and very crisp and lacking some weight in the middle to hold down the acidity so it finishes a bit tart. (JH)

About the producer

Square picque caillou
Picque Caillou

Neighbouring Haut-Brion and Pape Clément, this estate has been turned around since Paulin Calvet took over in 2007. Working with the legendary late Denis Dubourdieu and Valérie Lavigne, results have been impressive.
