Château Pichon-Longueville, Lalande--Vintage 1978
Pauillac, 2me cru classé
In original wooden case
Levels: seven into neck, four base of neck and one top-shoulder
Tasting Note: An excellent 1978 (one of the top wines of the vintage), Pichon-Lalande's offering displays an aromatic profile consisting of roasted herbs, chocolate, cedar, tobacco, and ripe curranty fruit. Medium-bodied, with low acidity, some tannin, and a round, attractive personality, this wine has reached its plateau of maturity, where it should remain for another decade. Anticipated maturity: Now-2007. Last tasted 6/97. Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition (1998)
