Chateau Pichon Lalande Pauillac 2021 (750ml)
Elegant and sensual, this 2021 Pichon Comtesse impresses with its soaring aromas of red fruit, mint, white pepper and savoury herbs. With 88% Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend, the palate shows layered, pure fruit tightly framed by silky tannins and fresh acidity. Dehydration and mildew challenges reduced yields dramatically, making this an especially rare vintage. Despite the challenges, the wine delivers remarkable concentration and finesse, finishing bright, mineral and full of life. A stunning expression of precision winemaking under pressure.

The 2021 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande wafts from the glass with aromas of blackberries and minty cassis mingled with notes of violet, lavender, pencil shavings and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and polished, it's beautifully seamless and complete, with a fleshy core of fruit, ripe acids and sweet, powdery tannins that assert themselves on the gently structured finish. This will offer a broad drinking window. It's one of the vintage's real successes, but it also represents only one-quarter of a "normal" production. Drink 2027-2045.
