Welcoming, tobacco and undergrowth aromatics, touches of smoked earth, grilled almonds, fine tannins, showcasing the finessed side of Cabernet as it ages. This has a gentle power, wild strawberry puree, brambled fruits with fresh acidities, lilting, subtle and a lovely moment to drink. Don’t expect a Pauillac powerhouse here, but there is life in the glass, a mouthwatering finish and it has something to say.

A classic new style of Pichon-Baron, with rich, thick, velvety tannins and complex berry, currant and mint character. Full-bodied, it's extremely balanced for showing such impressive power. A real beauty.

A alluring nose - one which was packed with meatiness, smoke, cedar wood, licorice and blackcurrant - the bottle felt a tad more advanced on the palate. A tertiary upfront, I was immediately struck by the balance of sous bois and blackberries before the palate transitioned in its entirety during the mid-palate as notes of licorice and smoke came through. The finish was a tad astringent but a bark note emerged that balanced it out. A great bottle, but one I would drink up on now.

 Tasted at The Ledbury Bordeaux-themed lunch. Consistent notes as previous occasions: as straight down the line classic Pauillac with an unashamed graphite-scented nose, a rather tannic but very well balanced palate with a surfeit of freshness, crisp and “energetic” on the finish, even if it refuses to take off its tie and blazer. Tasted May 2010.

I found this lone bottle during a recent cellar clean up. It was a nice surprise as it's fully ready to go. Classic in all the right ways, with its cedar wood, tobacco, smoke, cigar box, wet earth and cassis nose. The wine maintains a firm, rustic charm to its tannins, with notes of green olive and herbs poking through the crisp cassis finish. If you're seeking an old school experience, that is more correct than charming, this could be the wine you're looking for.

Crisp, ripe berry nose ; good length and tannic grip.

Château Château Pichon Longueville Baron
Château Pichon Longueville Baron

Château Pichon Longueville Baron is one of the great names of the Pauillac appellation, classified as a 2nd classified growth in the 1855 classification. A neighbour of Latour, this gravel-soil estate has returned to the heights since its acquisition by AXA Millésimes in 1987: its grand vin, dominated by cabernet sauvignon, seduces with its depth, its aromas of blackcurrant, cedar and tobacco, and its remarkable ageing potential.

From the great successes of the late 1980s, such as the 1989, to the 1982 that has become legendary, through to more recent vintages such as the 2005 wine or the 2012 vintage, the wines of Château Pichon Longueville Baron rank among the most sought-after Pauillacs. The estate complements its grand vin with two second wines, Les Tourelles de Longueville and Les Griffons de Pichon Baron.
