Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
Réserve de la Comtesse Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend
Pauillac, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
Tonight I have the joy of tasting the 2018 Chateau Pichon Longueville Pichon Comtesse Réserve. A name change this vintage of their second bottling from the Comtesse de Lalande Réserve.
On the nose is rich fruit of black cherry, blackberry, black plum, black currant, anise, cocoa powder violets, pencil lead and dark rich soil.
On the palate is a complex blend of black cherry, blackberry, black currant, cassis, green bell pepper, oak, cedar chest, minerals and rich earth.
This beautiful wine is full boddied with a plush velvety mouthfeel, medium + acidity and medium + tight grainy tannins which leads you to a long dark fruit earthy finish. Please have a great week and stay healthy and safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷

Fantastic wine with complex aromas of blackberry jam, cassis, violet, licorice, earthy and oak. Wonderfully balanced on the palate with well-integrated tannins and great length.

2018 vintage. Unspectacular and unexciting. Like the partner when you (both) know it's time to move on and recalibrate.

Very dark rubi robe. Nose of blackcurrant, asian spices, flowers and dark fruits. Rich mouth of a full bodied but accessible and quite elegant Pauillac on a very hot vintage we dont like. Good stuff.

Ripe cherries with hints of toffee. Bouquet opens up nicely. Velvety finish and medium tannins..
