There is a luxurious depth to Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2015, with vibrant blackcurrant and blueberry fruit layered by smoke, spice, dried flowers and subtle earthy tones, all wrapped in a velvety yet firmly structured frame. The palate feels precise and flowing, the tannins ultra-fine and polished, and the finish long, cool and mineral, signaling a great Pauillac that is both seductive and built for the long haul.

Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is a famed Pauillac Second Growth whose grand vin blends predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, crafted from gravel-over-clay parcels straddling the border of Pauillac and Saint-Julien. Known for uniting Pauillac’s classic cedar, graphite and blackcurrant profile with an unusually sensual, polished texture, it produces full-bodied yet refined wines capable of graceful, decades-long aging.
