Château Pichon Longueville "Comtesse de Lalande" 2010, Pauillac Grand Cru Classé (750 mL)

100 bod. - Decanter

Chateau Pichon-Longueville “Comtesse de Lalande” je poznat kao jedan od značajnih 'super drugih' iz Pauillaca. Ovaj slavni Drugi Rast, iz klasifikacije iz 1855. godine, graniči sa vinogradima Château Latour i dijeli sličnu klimu, položaj i tlo kao Prvi Rast, i pravi vino koje može parirati (a ponekad i nadmašiti) ono svojih uzvišenijih susjeda.

Duboko granatne boje, 2010. Pichon “Comtesse” daje note tople crne ribizle, pite od borovnica i kirša sa nijansama kedrovog sanduka, grafitne olovke, ugljena i suhomesnatih proizvoda, plus nagovještaj divlje majčine dušice.

66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot

Chateau Pichon Longueville “Comtesse de Lalande” is known as one of Pauillac’s significant ‘super seconds’. The illustrious Second Growth, from the 1855 classification, backs onto the vineyards of Château Latour and shares a similar climate, aspect and soil as the First Growth, and makes a wine which rivals (and sometimes even exceeds) that of its loftier neighbours.

Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Pichon “Comtesse” gives up notes of warm cassis, blueberry pie and kirsch with wafts of cedar chest, pencil lead, charcoal and charcuterie, plus a hint of wild thyme.

66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot
