Pichon Comtesse – Réserve
Pauillac - Second Wine



Description
Réserve de la Comtesse is the second wine of Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, and is a blend of Bordeaux varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and, to a lesser extent, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Aged for one year in oak barrels with a proportion of new wood of around 40%, the wine reveals a supple, aromatic character. –
Vintage 2024 blend: 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc
Vinous: “The 2024 Réserve de la Comtesse is a very racy, sexy wine. Crushed flowers, mint, lavender, new leather, mocha and spice all grace this exquisite, wonderfully nuanced Réserve. All the elements are so well balanced. Silky tannins add to the wine’s total feeling of finesse, but the aromatics are just as inviting.”
