[SOLD-OUT] Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse De Lalande 2004

Robert Parker 92 points!
"The 2004 Pichon Lalande is a strong effort for the vintage (much better than their underwhelming and much more expensive 2005). A blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, it exhibits a deep ruby/purple color as well as scents of cocoa, espresso roast, black cherries, and cassis. Medium to full-bodied, opulent, and fleshy, this classic wine cuts a stylistic persona somewhere between the 1995 and 1996. It can be drunk now or cellared for two decades."

Jancis Robinson 17.5/20 points!
“Dark blueish purple. Lots of lift on the nose. Round start to the palate - very Pichon Lalande - and then nice, neat integrated tannins, quite precise. Very fine sandy tannins contribute to an extremely dry finish. A true interpretation of both terroir and vintage. Not heavy but I think probably more successful than the other Pichon, thanks to its life and transparency.”
Jancis Robinson, 2005
