The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine With unfailing regularity and balance, the Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, neighbor to the famous Latour and Pichon Baron, excels in the production of great wines of Pauillac. It has reached new heights in the hands of the Rouzaud family - Louis Roederer and Deutz champagnes, Maison Delas -, who gifted it with a new and state of the art winery and vat house. 

This gave a new breath to the Château, which has since resumed its place as a “super-second” and began to create truly legendary wines in recent vintages.
Wine With an undeniable aromatic finesse, the 2017 Red Pauillac Pichon Comtesse Réserve has elegant tannins, with an ideal touch of freshness, carried by Cabernet grapes of great purity. Black fruits, cedar, discreet smoky notes, sweet spices, everything contributes to its depth and elegance. It is a very seductive wine, in a style that does not lack depth and that could surprise by its faculties of evolution. Noted 16/20 by the RVF.
Vinification Hand harvested, vinification by parcel, fermentation in stainless steel truncated cone-shaped vats with double thermo-regulated walls, aged for 12 months in barrels (40% new).
