Juicy and sleek in feel, with a gloss of singed vanilla and alder over the core of lively blackberry, fig and black currant paste flavors. Singed charcoal and sweet tobacco notes score the finish and leave a mouthwatering feel. A tough decision whether to drink now or wait, as both choices will be rewarded. Drink now through 2035.

Chateau Pichon-Longueville Lalande is one of the most important Super Seconds and this 2eme Cru Classe Pauillac estate has made tremendous strides in the last 20 years.
Pichon-Longueville Lalande is a 75-hectare property that produces on average 36,000 cases per year. Located in the east of the Pauillac appellation, the vineyards (Cabernet Sauvignon 45%, Merlot 35%, Cabernet Franc 12%, Petit Verdot 8%) lie on deep gravel beds underpinned by clay and then sandstone and limestone (part of these vineyards actually reside in the St-Julien appellation). The wine is fermented in stainless steel cuvees and then matured in oak barriques (50% new) for 18 months.
In the best years, it is one of the most exotic and voluptuously scented wines of the Medoc. At least a decade of cellaring is required before the wines should be approached.
