JS94: "This is a vivacious and very attractive, ripe Pauillac with aromas of ripe red plums, cherries and blackberries on offer. The palate has a plush, refined and suave array of very attractive, fine but dense tannins and the rich blackberries, plums and mulberries carry long and super fresh. Try from 2023." - James Suckling

VM91: "The 2016 Pibran is a very pretty, floral Pauillac with lovely red berry character and tons of class. Medium in body, the 2016 will drink well pretty much upon release. Feminine and understated, the 2016 is super-refined from start to finish, not to mention a true joy to taste today." - Antonio Galloni
