Jeannie Cho Lee April - 2025
Jeannie Cho Lee
A monumental vintage for Pichon Lalande. Dense yet refined with tightly knit dark fruit, herbs, and spices. 75% Cabernet Sauvignon. A wine of power and precision that will evolve beautifully over time. Long, impressive finish.

Medium bodied, forward, polished and fruity, the wine is silky, fresh and inviting. This is a new challenger in the quality race for the top second wine in Bordeaux. This year's blend is unique with all the Petit Verdot from the vineyard and more Cabernet Franc than usual.

The best ever made. Dark red colour, with purple reflections. Beautiful. Moderately intense nose, with ripe fruitiness. Toasted touch. Smooth from the entry on the palate and immediately fragrant, the wine evolves flavoursome, with a slightly firm touch between the mid-palate and the finish. Then it regains richness. Very beautiful length.

The 2016 Reserve de la Comtesse is a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 4% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple coloured, it leaps from the glass with beautiful kirsch, cassis and redcurrants with hints of red roses, black tea, black pepper, chocolate box and cloves. The palate is medium-bodied, very elegant and fresh with gorgeous silken tannins and loads of bright fruit, finishing spicy.

Very attractive silkiness on the nose with real perfume of maturing claret. Lift and freshness. A tribute to Pichon Lalande grand vin. Could be relatively GV for a mature claret?

Château Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse De Lalande
Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse De Lalande

Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, located in Pauillac in the heart of the Médoc, is one of the most emblematic Second Grand Cru Classé of the 1855 classification. Founded in the 17th century and permanently marked by the figure of Virginie de Pichon Longueville, Comtesse de Lalande, the estate has established itself today as an essential reference among the great wines of Bordeaux.

Located on deep gravel ridges resting on a clay-marl base, in close proximity to the Gironde estuary, the vineyard benefits from an exceptional terroir and a microclimate particularly favourable to the ripening of Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine combines power, precision and elegance, in a style renowned for its finesse and ageing potential.

Owned by the Rouzaud family since 2007, Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande continues a demanding quality policy, committed to an environmental approach certified HVE and in conversion to organic farming since 2021. Parcel vinification and the use of a gravity-fed vat room preserve the pure expression of the Pauillac terroir.

Vintages such as Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 1982, Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 1986, Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 1994, Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 1996, Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2000, Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2009, illustrate the consistent quality and remarkable ageing potential of this great Pauillac wine, particularly sought after by enthusiasts and collectors of rare wines.
