At first sip, Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2022 feels poised and pure, layering cassis, blackberries and ripe plum with a fragrant halo of violet, cedar and fine tobacco. The palate is full yet almost weightless, its polished, powdery tannins giving a precise, vertical architecture to the sweet dark fruit and graphite notes, leading to a long, perfumed finish that suggests a great, classically styled Pauillac in the making.

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.
