The Pichon Comtesse Réserve 2018 is a stunning Bordeaux from the renowned Pauillac region in France. Crafted by the esteemed Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, this vintage showcases the true essence of its terroir. On the nose, a bouquet of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and cassis entices the senses, while subtle hints of cedar, tobacco, and vanilla add depth and complexity. On the palate, this wine offers a full-bodied and velvety texture, with flavours of black fruit, mocha, and a touch of spice. The tannins are well-integrated, providing a long and elegant finish. This 2018 vintage is a deep ruby red colour, with a slight purple hue, indicating its youth and potential for ageing. A truly exceptional wine that perfectly balances power and finesse, the Pichon Comtesse Réserve 2018 is a must-try for any Bordeaux lover.
Winemakers Notes
Reserve of Pichon Comtesse, the worthy ambassador of its elder brother In perfect harmony with the Grand Vin, Pichon Comtesse Réserve, the estate's second wine, offers another interpretation of the unique and singular style of this Pauillac Grand Cru Classé. This subtle and elegant wine is delicately revealed through floral and fruity notes. Its depth and balance, direct yet velvety, give it unique grandeur in which the language of the senses is key. It goes beyond mere taste. Full of charm, it has that extra-special something that makes it stands out as a true ambassador for Pichon Comtesse. Pichon Comtesse Réserve benefits from the same high quality work as the Grand Vin and includes in its blend young vines recently replanted and located on the greatest terroirs of this vineyard. A true introduction to the Pichon Comtesse style, its high quality combined with its price make it a particularly interesting opportunity.
