Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
 Drunk from magnum, the 1993 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is in its prime today, wafting from the glass with notes of sweet red berry fruit, cigar box, loamy soil and orange rind. Medium-bodied, supple and satiny, with melted tannins, lively acids and fine mid-palate amplitude, it's an immensely charming, judiciously chaptalized middleweight that has aged with grace—and better than anyone could have anticipated.

Dark red color. Medium to good intensity. Slight evolution. Nose of medium intensity. Smoky. On swirling, meaty, fruity, ripe. Notes of cedar, wood, spices and vanilla. Soft attack, developing on a pleasant touch and medium body, juicy and flavorful. A pity that the wine drops off on the finish. But the tannins are melted and the persistence is medium. Once again this cru presents a better wine in a private cellar than at the château.

Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse De Lalande

Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is a Bordeaux wine estate that produces its grand crus in the Pauillac appellation. It is a second growth classified in the official 1855 classification. Recognizable by its white label with golden writing, the Château is also known for its high quality wine and expertise. Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande also produces a second wine: La Réserve de la Comtesse. 

The 45% Cabernet Sauvignon defines the structure, the framework of the wine and gives it its longevity. Recent tastings of old vintages such as 1875, 1893, 1900 have shown, through their surprising youth, the aging potential of Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande wines. 35% Merlot: a surprising percentage, unusual in an appellation that favors Cabernet Sauvignon.

The 12% Cabernet Franc produces a balanced wine with a fruity, firm and clean bouquet in its youth, which blends very well in the blend during aging. The 8% Petit Verdot brings freshness and great aromatic and spicy complexity to the blend. Each year, more than 100 people - often the same families from Andalusia - harvest the estate's grapes according to the degree of ripeness and age of the plots: Merlot, an early-ripening variety, starts the harvest, while Cabernet and Petit Verdot, late-ripening varieties, close it.
