Château Pichon-Longueville, Lalande--Vintage 1995
Pauillac, 2me cru classé
Tasting Note: Cabernet Sauvignon 45 Merlot 40 Cabernet Franc 15 (no Petit Verdot this time - usually there is about 8 - because its growth was arrested by the summer heat). Many notes. A total contrast to neighbouring Baron. Softer, sweeter, more fragrant, though still with leathery tannins in June 1997. Steady development yet the bottles presented by May de Lencquesaing for the Decanter millennium and 'Man of the Year' dinner in July 1999 (the 'man' was Jancis Robinson!), though full of fruit was bitterly tannic. Nevertheless, that autumn I think it warranted its place among the 'Super-seconds'. Distinctive, scented; sweet, rich, chewy at the MW tasting and equally fragrant, almost gamey at a Lalande tasting at Eugénie-les-Baines. Last tasted Oct 2000 **(**) 2008 - 2020 M.B.
