30 Mar 2023 ? I love the aromatics here with botanicals as well as currants blackberries and oranges. Full-bodied with incredible tannins that build on the palate with finesse and focus. Featherlight but always there. Stealth in structure. Very vertical. Savory. Superb. 78% cabernet sauvignon 17% merlot and 5% cabernet franc.
Vinous: 96-99 Points
The 2022 Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is magnificent. In recent years Estate Director Nicolas Glumineau has pushed Pichon Comtesse to the limit. Maybe even a bit too far. But the 2022 is in the end a super-classic wine that emphasizes mid-weight structure aromatic presence and persistence more than size. Sweet floral savory and mineral accents run through a core of ripe racy red-toned fruit. All the elements are so well balanced. Tasted four times.
Wine Advocate: 97-99 Points
The 2022 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is one wine where a comparison with this estate's magical 1982 doesn't appear to be far-fetched. Wafting from the glass with deep aromas of cassis plums violets rose petals tobacco leaf and pencil shavings it's full-bodied supple and fleshy with a layered seamless core of fruit that largely conceals its chassis of powdery structuring tannin. Concluding with a long expansive and beautifully perfumed finish it's a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon 17% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc that has the potential to equal or even surpass the 2019 and 2016 vintages at this address. It checks in at a very classical 13.6% alcohol and a rather high pH of 3.80.
