Chateau Le Pin Beausoleil 2016

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Le Pin Beausoleil leaps from the glass with notes of plum preserves, crème de cassis and blueberry pie plus touches of Provence herbs, cigar box and vanilla pod. Medium-bodied, the palate is bursting with vibrant black fruit, framed by plush tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing spicy."

JAMES SUCKLING: "Attractive aromas of red fruit with subtle, earthy and spicy nuances, leading to a palate that has succulent, and tangy red-berry flavor and juicy tannins. Try from 2021."

WINE SPECTATOR: "Features a fresh and pure beam of cassis and cherry preserve flavors streaming through, glistening with light anise, vanilla and floral notes along the way. Reveals a flicker of mineral on the finish. Drink now through 2022. 1,000 cases made."
