Château Pichon-Longueville, Lalande--Vintage 1981
Pauillac, 2me cru classé
Levels: bottom neck; all lightly scuffed labels
"This has always been one of the sexiest, most delicious wines from the 1981 vintage. It still possesses a dark ruby/purple color. While the 1981 is less powerful than the 1982 and 1983, it reveals copious quantities of sweet black currant fruit, good flesh for the vintage, and a pure, nicely-textured and balanced style. This wine remains vibrant and youthful. Anticipated maturity: Now-2002. Last tasted 6/97" Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition (1998)
