2010 Chateau Pichon-Longueville 'Reserve de la Comtesse' Pauillac

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


James Suckling - "Very polished tannins that caress the palate. Full body. It's fruity, pretty and refined. The mineral and berry character comes through in a subtle way. Second wine of Pichon Lalande."


Vinous - "The 2010 Réserve de la Comtesse has a tight, broody bouquet that feels a little thin compared to its peers in this flight. Red berry fruit, brown spices and iron filing scents only reluctantly emerge, gradually adding weight and in the end the aromatics are very satisfying. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins and attractive red and black fruit, a little leathery with cedar notes towards the lively finish."
