Château Pichon-Longueville Baron 1990
Pauillac, 2ème cru classé
In original wooden case. Excellent appearance. Pristine labels. Levels: eleven into neck, one very top-shoulder
Tasting note: A remarkable vintage for Pichon Longueville Baron, 1990 is one of this estate’s two or three finest wines made in the last 40 years. Still inky/blue/purple-tinged to the rim, it reveals an extraordinary bouquet of charcoal, incense, creme de cassis, blue and black fruits, and a hint of licorice as well as an impressively long finish. While drinkable, its evolution is extremely slow, and I would not be surprised to see it last another two decades or more. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 183, June 2009.
