Tasting notes for Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 1997
Appearance: Garnet red with brick-colored highlights and a velvety depth, like a ruby polished by time.
On the nose: Notes of ripe blackcurrant and wild blackberry come first, followed by a touch of cedar and light tobacco, before a saline hint recalls the terroir’s maritime influence.
On the palate: A silky texture carried by lively acidity and chalky minerality extends into a long, precise finish where sweet spices mingle with softened tannins.
Serve at 16–18°C in a Bordeaux glass to bring out its full complexity.
