Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend
Pauillac, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
2008- not overt with its aromatics giving hints of toasty oak, pencil shavings, bay leaf and plum, blackberry and black currant sitting there too. Wine is developing. Tannins feel more resolves than the 06. Finish is a bit abrupt that what you’d hope.

Medium ruby with wide garnet rim . On the nose quite red fruit focused with earthy , sous bois and truffle notes , grafite coffee and cedar . On the palate medium bodied with a mix of red and dark fruit, soy , tobacco , iron filings and cedar. Quite good acidity , with fine tannin , balanced alcohol . Pretty good length with a saline , grafite finish . This is showing well now and be at its best over the next 5-8 years , and last a further 10. On Singapore Airlines FRA - SIN

Aug 10th, 2020Young, with notes of black olives, tobacco and leather. The merlot does not seem especially well integrated. Finish and length of the wine is excellent and quite velvety. Perhaps more time would help
