Richly coloured ; good fruit, a whiff of lavender and 'sea breeze' ; mouthfilling, sweet, masked tannin.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
This has an attractive, slightly austere, leafy nose with tobacco, graphite, cedar and a touch of earthiness coming through. That graphite scent becomes more intense with time. The palate is medium-bodied, very well balanced, masculine but a nice sense of tension. Touches of burnt toast, savoury fruits and sour cherry towards the finish. A sense of elegance here, paradigmatic of a great austere 1988. Bon vin!

Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse De Lalande

Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, located in Pauillac in the heart of Médoc, is one of the most emblematic Second Grand Cru Classé of the 1855 classification. Founded in the 17th century and lastingly marked by the figure of Virginie de Pichon Longueville, Comtesse de Lalande, the estate stands 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 favorable to the maturity of Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine combines power, precision and elegance, in a style recognized for its finesse and aging capacity.

Property of 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-based vinifications and the use of a gravity-flow vat room allow to preserve the pure expression of the Pauillac terroir.
