Jeb Dunnuck Tasting Note

One of the gems from Pauillac is unquestionably the 2022 Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse De Lalande, which is 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Franc. A hypothetical blend of the 2019 and 2020, it's a full-bodied, concentrated, opulent Comtesse offering beautiful blue fruits, some chocolate, leafy herbs, and undeniable minerality, ripe, velvety tannins, and a great finish. Despite the higher Cabernet Sauvignon component, this stays silky, expansive, and incredibly sexy. It's going to be drinkable with just 4-5 years of bottle age but should have a lengthy drink window. Hats off to director Nicolas Glumineau for another legendary wine from this château.

About the Producer

Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, a prestigious Second Cru Classé of Pauillac, is a name that resonates with elegance. The estate’s history is intimately linked to the figure of Comtesse Virginie de Lalande, whose influence still leaves its mark on the wines today. Now owned by the Louis Roederer house, this Pauillac Grand Cru continues its constant quest for excellence. The wines of Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande are distinguished by a style that is both refined and accessible, a singular interpretation of its terroir. Merlot, the dominant grape variety, provides a silky texture and vibrant fruitiness, contributing to the wines' immediate charm and aging potential. In addition to the famous grand vin Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, the estate produces La Réserve de la Comtesse, a second wine that elegantly expresses the richness of the Pauillac appellation. Legend has it that the Comtesse, attached to her roots, had English roses planted in the château's gardens, adding a touch of romance to this exceptional place. The estate crafts wines within the Deuxièmes Crus appellation, extending its signature with consistency.
