Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2eme Cru 2017

97–99
/100

Lobenberg: Ingen frostskader. 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc og 1% Petit Verdot. Sensationelt frisk Cabernet-næse. Krydret, fuld af intensitet. Cassis, men i en meget slank form. Violer, men selv violerne er ikke på en eller anden måde overdådige, men meget fine, meget friske. Stor mineralitet. Salt i næsen lige fra starten. Masser af sorte kirsebær. Alt sammen magert, alt sammen fuld af intensitet. I munden har vi imidlertid 2017 Pauillac af den fineste slags. Vi har rig lakrids, vi har denne enorme sødme fra lakrids, fra cassis, fra brombær, morbær, violer. En ganske kraftig krop for en Picola. Meget harmonisk, rund, lang og tæt. Det lyder som en fed vin, men Picola er ikke fed, Picola er bare virkelig overdådig. Og hvis alt går vel, vil denne 2017'er med tiden præsentere sig som en 82'er. Den er ikke udenjordisk elegant og distanceret i sin finesse som 2016, men den er mere som en blockbuster. Stilmæssigt er den ikke som sin nabo Latour, men næsten mere som Cos d'Estournel, men så med lidt mere intensitet. Potentielt en efterfølger til 1982'eren, måske lidt federe. En vin med stort potentiale, men som endnu ikke har nået den storhed, den måske en dag vil få. 97-99/100

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

Composed of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2017 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and is a little closed to begin, soon revealing floral notes of lilacs and lavender over a core of black raspberries, warm blackberries and forest floor plus touches of star anise and stewed black tea. Medium-bodied, the palate is a bundle of energy and tension with softly played tannins and beautiful floral and black fruit layers, finishing with a long-lingering whisper. 96/100

On the palate this possesses a wonderful medium-plus body with a firm structure and incredible overall balance. It shows incredible purity and poise as it heads into the long polished finish. This is nothing short of a remarkable success in this challenging vintage, and it should go on to evolve brilliantly for years to come. 96/100

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

-- Wine Enthusiast: Certainly a fine wine, this has ripe tannins that are balanced by the fine, black fruits. With its smoky and black currant character, it has the structure for aging, as well as the attractive fruitiness of the vintage. Drink from 2024. 95-97/100

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

-- Suckling: This is a really fascinating young Pichon Lalande with a dense center palate of currants, crushed stones, salt and seashells. Really long and intense. Wonderful energy. Showing character of some of the top years of the 1980s. 95-96/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2eme Cru

Pure elegance and class, the 2017 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse De Lalande checks in as 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Petit Verdot (representing just 50% of the production) that spent 18 months in 60% new barrels. Nicolas Glumineau has done an incredible job at this estate and this wine is consistently one of the classiest, most elegant wines in just about every vintage. Pure Pauillac notes of creme de cassis, lead pencil, green tobacco, and gravelly earth give way to a medium to full-bodied, soft, supple, flawlessly balanced 2017 that shows the more straight, classic style of the vintage. It needs 4-6 years of bottle age and will evolve gracefully for 25+ years or more. Tasted twice. 95/100

Tasting in a blind lineup across Pauillac, it is instantly clear that what you get in this glass is better clarity of fruit, a darker and more serious texture across the palate and some lovely saffron and cinnamon notes to fill out the body. This feels like a Pauillac and even though it doesn't have the concentration of bigger years, there is a lot to be delighted about here. Silky tannins, burnished confidence, well-handled oak. Wait just another five years then ready to go with a carafe. 95/100

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.
