Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2ème GCC Pauillac 2025

The Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2025 is one of the great successes of the vintage in Pauillac. This blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc combines power, depth and elegance in a remarkable way. On the nose, there are notes of blackcurrant, blackberries, black plums and dark cherries, complemented by violets, iris, cigar wrapper, precious woods, nougat and a hint of dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is deep and multi-layered, with a concentrated core of dark fruit, subtle extract sweetness and fine-grained tannins. Despite its density, it remains polished and harmonious. The fresh structure lends tension, whilst the long finish is characterised by dark berries, spices and mineral nuances. A classic Pichon Comtesse with great ageing potential.
