Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 'Pichon Comtesse Reserve' 2017

Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande’s Réserve de la Comtesse 2017 offers a refined taste of Pauillac at a more approachable level than the Grand Vin, while still delivering the house’s unmistakable elegance and structure. This second wine is prized for its balance of freshness, finesse, and classic Bordeaux character, making it an excellent choice for drinkers seeking depth without sacrificing drinkability. In a region known for powerful, long-lived wines, the Réserve stands out for its polished style and immediate appeal.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, the wine shows a ruby to deep garnet hue that hints at its concentrated dark fruit core. The nose is expressive and layered, with cassis, blackberry, and dark plum lifted by floral violet notes, then followed by subtle accents of tobacco, cedar, and a touch of licorice. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and beautifully composed, with silky tannins, fresh acidity, and a fine mineral line that gives the wine precision and poise. The finish is smooth and persistent rather than forceful, leaving an impression of balance and refinement. While approachable in its youth, the 2017 vintage should also gain additional nuance over the next several years if cellared properly.

Viininvalmistus
The grapes come from Pauillac in Bordeaux, where gravelly soils and a classic Left Bank climate provide ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon-led blends. The fruit is hand-harvested and carefully sorted before fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. After vinification, the wine is aged for around 12 to 18 months in French barriques, with a portion of new oak to add structure and complexity while preserving the wine’s terroir-driven character and fine texture.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This wine pairs wonderfully with roasted lamb, beef fillet, duck breast, game birds, or dishes with earthy mushroom-based sauces. It also works well with aged hard cheeses such as Comté or mature cheddar. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decanting for 1–2 hours is recommended to allow the aromas and texture to खुल fully.
