Colin Hay om:
Chateau Branas Grand Poujeaux
Another really impressive wine, of classed growth quality, from Arjen Pen. This is plump, full and plush as it always is, but with a degree of elegance and finesse – above all evident in the quality of the tannins – that I don’t think I’ve encountered here before. Dark berry and stone fruits fill the mouth from cheek to cheek, wrapped in velour and soft leather. They’re perfectly ripe and it’s as if they explode over the palate releasing little plumes of freshness like tiny sparkles as they do so. Very dynamic and energetic and very long on the gently tapering finish.
