2e Cru Classé Pauillac, Pichon-Longueville Baron est reconnu comme un «super second».
Very polished with creamy, lightly chewy tannins and layers of texture. Real cabernet sauvignon here. It’s full-bodied with pretty blackberry and blueberry character. Chocolate, too. Long, intense finish of fine, lightly dusty tannins. Tight and focused. Such finesse and class. 87% cabernet sauvignon and 13% merlot.
Couleur sombre, intense et belle. Nez très aromatique, fruité, profond et complexe. Ample à l'attaque, juteux en milieu de bouche, gras, puissant et profond, le vin s'envole en finale sur un relief noble et beaucoup de goût. C'est délicieux, parfumé et très frais. Très bonne longueur aux tannins fins.
The 2019 Pichon-Longueville Baron will go down as one of this château's great wines of the modern era, along with 2016, 2010 and 1989. Unfurling in the glass with aromas of cassis and plums mingled with notions of cigar wrapper, sweet loamy soil and violets, it's full-bodied, velvety and layered, with superb concentration, lively acids and rich, powdery tannins. Perfumed and resonant, this is a profound young Pauillac that bears more of a resemblance to its neighbor Château Latour than to Pichon Lalande this year.
Intensives Bouquet, reife Himbeeren, Brombeeren, Johannisbeeren, Kakao. Dicht, saftig, zart süsses Tannin, feine Säure, reife Brombeeren, Johannisbeeren, Schokolade, zart Kräuter im Finish, gute Länge.
Doté d'une matière très profonde, solide et intense, ce Baron ira loin. Il est monobloc à ce stade, mais possède un potentiel immense, avec des tanins extraordinairement racés et une allonge tout à fait magnifique.
Expressive and vibrant, with a cassis bush aroma that leaps to the forefront, followed quickly by sleek and dense black currant, black Mission fig and black cherry preserve flavors flanked by a racy graphite note. Shows a burst of sweet bay leaf and savory accents through the finish, as the fruit takes an encore before zooming off. A serious wine with a hint of bling. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2025 through 2045. From France.
Blackberries and blueberries with stone and graphite. Flint and black licorice, too. So perfumed. Full-bodied, very long and linear with incredible length. The new 1990, but better crafted. Chewy, yet so tailored and wonderfully proportioned. Freshness and elegance. Wonderful depth. 87% cabernet sauvignon rest merlot. The highest ever proportion of cabernet. Try after 2026.
