Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande Pauillac, Médoc, Bordeaux, France, 1949

Product Details

Product Description

Second Growth. Deuxieme Grand Cru Classe in 1855. Since 2007 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is owned by the Rouzaud family of Louis Roederer. Critic tasting note: "What a beautiful wine! Popped and poured, the essence of violets and roses started off the aromatic show. They were quickly joined by Cigar wrapper, cedar wood, smoke, leather, and bright red fruits. Medium bodied, elegant, silky, vibrant and gorgeous to feel as it caresses your palate. Surprisingly, the wine put on weight as it remained in the glass. This is what fully mature, Bordeaux is all about. One little note, the bottle has not moved since release and was recorked in the mid-1980's, so it is going to be hard to replicate this experience. Still, with provenance, it is worth taking a chance on in the auction market. 94 Points" - <i>94/100</i>, <i>Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider</i>
