Château Le Pin was established in 1979 when Jacques Thienpont purchased a tiny 1-hectare plot in Pomerol, transforming an unassuming farmhouse vineyard into one of the world's most exclusive estates.
Le Pin has remained under the stewardship of the Thienpont family, who craft the wine in small quantities using traditional methods, often producing fewer than 600 cases a year.
Le Pin defied expectations with its opulent, fruit-driven style, helping to redefine Pomerol’s global reputation and cementing its status as a cult wine almost overnight.
