Tasting notes
Vintage conditions required a stricter selection for the 2007 Pingus. The aromatics are more brooding but seriously multifaceted. Smoke, pencil lead, truffle, Asian spices, blackberry, and licorice notes are followed by a chewy, dense, rich, powerful wine with fully integrated oak, savory black fruits, ripe tannins, and a decade of aging potential. Drink it from 2020 to 2037 if not longer. Jay Miller-Wine Advocate # 189 Jun 2010

This shows masses of minerally character with dried fruit such as prunes. It's almost like Christmas pudding. It's full-bodied and very silky but has a chewy, lightly austere back palate. Creamy acidity gives the wine balance and style. Drink or hold. (July 2015) www.jamessuckling.com
