CHÂTEAU PICHON LONGUEVILLE COMTESSE DE LALANDE 2015 (2)

Pauillac. 2ième Cru Classé

2015 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande displays a medium to deep garnet-purple color and is elegantly fruited with crushed red currants, black raspberries and cassis with touches of lavender, rose hips, tilled soil, fungi and charcuterie. Medium-bodied, finely crafted, remarkably pure and beautifully poised, it has a firm frame of very fine-grained tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing on a lingering mineral note. February 2018 Drink to 2040 WA 96

CHÂTEAU PICHON LONGUEVILLE COMTESSE DE LALANDE 2016 (2)

Pauillac. 2ième Cru Classé
1 x scuffed label.

One of the greatest wines that this estate has produced in the modern era, the 2016 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is a brilliant classic that no Bordeaux lover is going to want to do without. Mingling aromas of cassis and plums with notions of licorice, sweet tobacco leaf, rich soil tones, licorice, cigar smoke and violets, it's full-bodied, seamless and complete, with huge concentration, bright acids and a long, penetrating finish. Standing out for its unerring precision, impeccable balance and ineffable sense of completeness, it should prove almost immortal. April 2022 Drink to 2066 WA 100
