Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2eme Cru 2009

97–99

Sort med en rubinrød kant. Æterisk, meget intens Bourgogne-næse, en Chambertin Grand Cru? Friske blommer, røde kirsebær, modne skovjordbær, så lidt cassis og ribs, lidt eksotisk appelsinskal, alt sammen ekstremt aromatisk, så man får tårer i øjnene! Derefter muterer næsen langsomt til den ekstreme delikatesse af en Ridge Monte Bello, moden californisk Cabernet, smuk at hoppe ind i. Så meget finesse med fylde og charme. Vinen er ikke en gigant som Latour, men snarere en saftig, fin perfektion. Det er også tydeligt i munden. Frisk blomme, moden, mild cassis med bløde ribs ved siden af, modne skovjordbær og hindbær, asiatiske krydderier, en af superstjernerne, når det gælder harmoni og elegance, afbalanceret, meget kompleks, ultrafin og rig på finesse. Ultrafin frugtfinish, der bliver hængende i minutter, et virkelig stort nummer. Mere harmonisk og moden end den store 2008. En finere, mere afslappet finesseversion af 2005. Jeg er meget imponeret. 97-99/100

Decanter om: Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2eme Cru

Roederer Estates had owned Pichon Comtesse for three years prior to the 2009 vintage, having taken over in 2006, with Gildas d'Ollone as managing director and Thomas Do-Chi-Nam as technical director. Together, they created a stunning, lyrical 2009 that just begs to be savoured. It’s ripe and intense, rippling with juicy blackberry and blackcurrant fruit and touches of violet on the nose. A beautifully balanced wine. 97/100

Galloni om: Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2eme Cru

The 2009 Pichon Lalande is ripe and decidedly flamboyant from the very first taste. Dense and voluptuous in the glass, with serious richness, the 2009 is also almost shockingly tannic. It won’t be ready to drink anytime soon, and yet, there is so much to look forward to. The warm, dry conditions yielded a dense, exotic Pichon Lalande, but there is serious structure beneath all of the fruit. 97/100

Parker om: Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2eme Cru

The blend for the 2009 Pichon Lalande is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, somewhat unusual at this estate which usually has more Merlot in the blend. As stated previously, the Cabernet Sauvignon reached levels of ripeness and intensity of flavor in 2009 never seen before in Bordeaux! The final blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot and a pH of 3.8 combines the best of a vintage such as 1996, in terms of structure, freshness, and precision, with the best of 1982, in terms of opulence, power, unctuosity, and thickness. The opaque purple-colored 2009 exhibits an intoxicatingly intense nose of red and black fruits, subtle smoke, charcoal, forest floor, and a hint of flowers. Unusually full-bodied for a wine from this estate as well as unctuously textured, voluptuous, and incredibly pure and precise, this dazzling wine should be drinkable at an early age, and evolve for 30+ years. (Tasted once.) 96-98/100

Suckling om: Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2eme Cru

What a great nose of blackberries, currants and spices. Hints of fresh herbs. Full body, with ultra-fine tannins and lovely fruit. Such finesse and beauty. Wonderful to taste. Reminds me of the legendary 1982. Try in 2018. 96/100

Wine Spectator om: Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2eme Cru

Wow. This has an incredible complexity on the nose of currant, spice, mineral and flowers. Full-bodied, with a great density of fruit and tannins, yet polished and beautiful. This could be the new 1982 from here. Made from 75 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, 20 percent Merlot and 5 percent Petit Verdot. 95-98/100

Min vinmager

Pichon Lalande

I 1850 blev vingården Pichon Longeville delt på grund af en arv. Den ene halvdel blev arvet af Virginie de Lalande, som inden arven havde giftet sig med grev Henri de Lalande. Sådan opstod det lidt akavede lange navn Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande.
