From a good Bordeaux vintage sandwiched between the more expensive, more
vaunted 2003 and 2005, this youthful Pauillac, a Merlot, Cab. Sauvignon &
Franc chip off the Pichon Longueville Baron block, has the pedigree of its
sibling at a relatively affordable price. Sweet with smokey vanilla, cedary
aromatic overtones, a core of cassis fruit richness is underscored by an
already highly drinkable palate of juicy acidity and supple tannins.

Les Tourelles de Longueville (the second wine of Ch. Pichon-Baron) has always
been, and always will be, a firm BB&R favourite. Why? Simple - this is the
epitomy of good Claret at a sensible price. It has pedigree and gravitas but it
also has charm and its own identity. There is no better vintage to experience
our favourite than the legendary 2005 vintage in which Les Tourelles de
Longueville boasts a complexity above its status. Black cherries and mocha
hints are abundant, all supported by a structure that will facilitate
impressive ageing.

With an intense, complex nose and dense bramble and spice notes on the palate,
the 71% Cabernet, 29% Merlot blend is concentrated with dark fruit gravitas and
a long, mineral finish. The richness of the fruit is very evident here and
brings to mind the 2001 but the crisp acidity is a reflection of the unique
character of 2008. Pichon-Baron may be classed as a 2ème Cru
Classé but in 2008 they have produced a wine of First Growth
quality.

Pichon-Baron's beaming winemaker Jean-Réné Matignon has once
again made a sleek, sexy and hedonistic wine in 2005. With an
intoxicating perfumed nose and a powerful, velvety palate of black cherries
this ripe, polished, minerally wine is pure Pauillac. The 64% Cabernet
Sauvignon is unsurprisingly to the fore, with the small berries bestowing great
concentration and beautiful pure fruit on this wine. This is another fine
performance set to confirm Pichon-Baron's position at the top of Bordeaux's
echelon.

The first in a super double for a property which was only just beginning to reap the benefits of investment. Dark in colour, with cinnamon and clove spices on the nose, this dense and complex wine has remarkable power and length.
