The 2016 Château Olivier is a beautifully crisp and well-defined wine from Pessac-Léognan made from a classic blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. Medium-bodied and elegant, this is a very assured release offering superb balance of ripe aromatics, fine-grained structure and finesse.

The 2016 Olivier has an attractive bouquet of blackberry, briar, sous-bois and cedar aromas that gain intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with lithe tannins and fine acidity, fresh and cohesive, leading to quite a persistent finish. This is a lovely wine – not a showstopper, but maybe beginning to improve in bottle. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. Neal Martin1st August 2020
