Why We're Buying
Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande has a long name and an even longer list of accolades. As one of the 15 deuxièmes crus, its red blend serves as a model for structure and style. The cabernet sauvignon-forward blend also ranks among the priciest wines in Pauillac.
Critics Scores
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Deep garnet colored, the 2009 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is a little reticent to begin, slowly giving way to notions of warm black cherries, blackcurrant cordial, stewed plums and sautéed herbs with hints of damp soil, tobacco and beef drippings. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is packed with tightly wound black fruit and earthy layers, framed by ripe, fine-grained tannins and lovely freshness making for a long, lively finish.
