1993 Ch. Pichon-Longueville, Comtesse de Lalande, Pauillac

Pichon-Lalande, traditionally among the softest, most seductive, and hedonistic wines from St.-Julien, St.-Estephe, and Pauillac, displays more structure, as well as a more classic Pauillac aromatic and flavour profile for its 1993 vintage. The palate reveals copious notes of tobacco, charcoal, incense, creme de cassis, blue and black fruits and a long finish. At its peak now, although it can keep well for the next 5-7 years.
