Château Pichon-Longueville, Baron--Vintage 1996
Pauillac, 2me cru classé
Tasting note: In April 1997 good fruit, well balanced though a touch of tartness. The following September at the château, dry, crisp, firm tannic. Cabernet Sauvignon 76 the rest Merlot, no Petit Verdot using the grand vin in 1996. Two years later: rich though muffled fruit, toasty, some ginger on nose and palatge. Very flavoury, spicy oak. Last tasted Nov 2000 **(**) 2006-2015. M.B.
