Tasting notes
The 2024 Château Pibran is based on 54% Merlot and 46% Cabernet Sauvignon. Its deep purple hue is followed by solid aromatics of ripe red and black fruits, lead pencil shavings, and violets. Medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, with solid purity, and ripe tannins, it's a solid 2024 that will unquestionably offer pleasure.

Notions of sweet plums, raspberries and cherries introduce the 2024 Pibran, a medium-bodied, soft and round wine that will be drinkable on release.
The 2024 Pibran is bright and punchy right out of the gate. Brisk acids and lively floral top notes run through a core of red/purplish fruit, rose petal, cinnamon and blood orange. There's very fine energy and tons of character here.
The 2024 Pibran, matured in 60% new oak, has a pleasant, light, Japanese wakame-scented bouquet with a hint of liquorice. It shows fine delineation, though not powerful. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly grainy tannins, fresh on the entry with a keen thread of acidity and graphite-tinged black fruit on the understated finish. Drink over the next decade.
