Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

The 2023 Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is pure class. Vertical, deep and explosive, the 2023 is one of the stars of the vintage. Readers will find a vertical, soaring Pichon Comtesse. The 2023 is one of the most refined wines I can remember tasting here in many years. Lavender, dried herbs, menthol, licorice and mocha are some of the notes that build with some time in the glass. The 2023 is not an especially showy Pichon Comtesse, but rather a wine that needs time to blossom.

This smells divine, lovely lush blackcurrant and black cherry characters on the nose with pencil led, graphite, liquorice and menthol elements - very Pauillac on the nose. Gorgeous weight, supple and agile, great movement and energy to this. Acidity makes this buzzy, tangy and bright but not over the top, this keeps its structure and retains a serious directness from start to finish. Generous licks of minerality adds some cool classicism to it. Sleek and refined, precise and very drinkable. One of a number of brilliant Pauillac wines in 2023. Winemaker Nicolas Glumineau wants it to be racy and it’s certainly racy. 50% grand vin production, 50% second. 3.67pH, 14.7% press wine only Cabernet. Ageing 19 months, 60-65% new oak and then one wine barrels.

The 2023 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is showing a more brooding, serious profile in bottle than it did from cask, unwinding in the glass with notes of blueberries, blackberries and plums mingled with hints of pencil shavings, violet and crushed mint. Medium- to full-bodied, deep and dense, with a nicely integrated chassis of sweet structuring tannin, it's classically proportioned, with a long, penetrating finish. This blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc checks in at 13% alcohol.

Based on 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, and 3% Cabernet Franc and aged in 60% new French oak, the saturated purple-hued 2023 Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse De Lalande offers darker currants, violet, smoky tobacco, lead pencil, and graphite on the nose, all intermixed with the classic Comtesse floral and violet nuances. It's medium to full-bodied and has a pure, layered, graceful mouthfeel, polished yet building tannins, and outstanding length. It's going to be an absolutely classic wine from this address that will have 40 years of prime drinking. Drink 2027-2067.

94-96 2023 Pichon Comtesse has a vibrant, fruity nose and a strong, powerful taste. It is a fresh, elegant, velvety offering with lots of strong fruit and a massive skeleton of tannins and wood all seemingly in balance but still very young. The quality of the fruit and tannins is very high and this should turn out to become a classic Comtesse. Wait another 6-8 years as this is a wine that always needs time and you should be rewarded.

Wine Spectator

There’s warmth to this red’s cassis, plum and cherry reduction notes, as a hint of wet earth tugs from underneath. The grip is juicy-edged and well-buried, while ink and iris notes run along the edges, ending with a fresh cedar backdrop on the finish. Solidly built throughout. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2028 through 2045.
