Dark, seductive fruit rolls in first, all ripe blackcurrant and plum wrapped in cocoa, smoky cedar and a touch of graphite, then Chateau Pichon-Longueville Baron 2009 surges across the palate with lavish richness and perfectly cushioned tannins. Despite its sheer power and concentration, the wine feels composed and refined, finishing long with a savoury, herbal lift and a lingering echo of tobacco-laced black fruit.

Château Pichon-Longueville Baron is the grand vin of this historic Pauillac Second Growth, a Cabernet Sauvignon–led red Bordeaux sourced from the estate’s oldest vines on deep gravel soils opposite Château Latour. Known for its powerful yet refined “super second” style, it typically delivers dense black fruit, cassis, cedar and graphite with firm, velvety tannins and remarkable aging capacity that allows top vintages to evolve gracefully for several decades.
