รายละเอียดสินค้า
"Lovely grilled and graphite notes right off the bat; this is big and muscular, and extremely Pauillac. There is grace here too, with raspberry purée, cassis, fig and blackberry fruits set against charcoal and fine tannins that quickly build up to suggest how well this will age. 1% Petit Verdot completes the blend. 60% new oak used. 13% press wine. Drinking Window 2026 - 2038 " - 98 points Decanter

98 points Wine Enthusiast
This famous estate at the southern end of Pauillac has produced a powerful wine. Packed blackberry fruits, laced with acidity, are just starting out on a long journey along with the tannins. The wine’s elegance is beautifully preserved within the structure. With considerable potential, the wine should not be drunk before 2027. Cellar Selection
97 points Wine Advocate
The 2018 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is a blend of 71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot with a pH of 3.85, an IPT (total polyphenol index) of 87 and 14% alcohol. The grand vin represents 50% of the crop this year. Deep garnet-purple colored, it charges out of the gate with bold scents of baked plums, ripe blackcurrants and wild blueberries, followed by hints of cedar chest, pencil lead, bouquet garni and charcuterie, plus a waft of lilacs. The medium-bodied palate is beautifully crafted with its seamless freshness and firm, grainy tannin's supporting the compelling, finely knit black fruits and savory nuances, finishing on a lingering fragrant-earth note. This will need a good 5 years to come around and should easily cellar for another 30 years or more. Rating : 97+
98 points Wine Spectator
Offers a deep well of dark currant, blackberry paste and plum preserves fruit that needs time to unwind fully, as it’s shrouded in warm earth, tobacco, singed cedar, sweet bay leaf and savory notes. A ramrod of graphite adds to the strident, structured feel. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2030 through 2050.
97 points James Suckling
Aromas of blackberry, dried blueberry, gravel, mocha and cigar box. Light fresh-herb undertone. It’s full-bodied with firm, ultra fine tannins and fresh acidity. Focused and minerally with a long finish. Great length. Very tight and restrained at the moment. Wait until at least 2026 to take a look.

Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, also called Château Pichon Comtesse is one of the fifteen Second Growths in the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855.
The estate covers 92 hectares and is situated along the Gironde Estuary just next to Château Latour. It was once part of the larger Pichon estate, which was also including Château Pichon Longueville Baron. In 1850, the estate was divided into the two current Pichon estates. New winemaking facilities were built in 2013.
Château Pichon Comtesse produces an average of 15,000 cases per vintage as well as a second wine named Réserve de Pichon Comtesse (Réserve de la Comtesse before 2017). Planted grape varieties are 65 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 25 % Merlot, 7 % Cabernet Franc and 3 % Petit Verdot.
Since 2007, the Château is the property of the Rouzaud family, which also owns the Champagne house Louis Roederer.
