Product details
Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, a distinguished Second Growth estate in Bordeaux’s Pauillac appellation, has a legacy of elegance dating back to the 17th century. The 2022 vintage is a masterful blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Franc, aged for 18 months in 60% new French oak barrels, which imparts depth, structure, and subtle toasty notes while preserving the purity of the fruit.
The 2022 Château Pichon Comtesse displays a deep, garnet color, signaling its concentration and richness. The nose reveals a rare depth, combining fruity aromas of raspberry and blackcurrant with elegant hints of rosewood and red rose. On the palate, the wine is generous and seductive, featuring crunchy, indulgent flavors of blackcurrant and cherry, layered over a refined structure. The finish is beautifully long and expressed through creamy, silky tannins, showcasing the finesse and elegance characteristic of this esteemed Pauillac estate.
Pairs exquisitely with roasted, braised, or grilled meats, including veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, and chicken. It also complements hearty preparations and can stand alongside richly flavored dishes, allowing its structure and finesse to shine.
