Historien for et af Bordeaux’ største og mest berømte vinslotte begynder i 1686, da Pierre de Mazure Rauzan køber vinparceller i nærheden af Château Latour. Da hans datter gifter sig med formanden for Bordeaux-parlamentet, Jacques Francois de Pichon Langueville, får hun slottet i medgift. Det bliver imidlertid splittet op i 1850 mellem fem arvinger, hvor mændenes andel bliver til Château Pichon Baron og kvindernes bliver til det vi i dag kender som Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande.

Efter forskellige generationsskifter og ændringer i ejerskabet blev Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse De Lalande i 2007 erhvervet af Louis Roederer-familien, der også ejer det berømte champagnehus Louis Roederer. Dette åbnede dørene for yderligere investeringer og modernisering af ejendommen.

Det ikoniske Cru Classé-slot har flere gange høstet de perfekte 100 points hos Robert Parker og her får du muligheden for at smage en helt særlig kældermodnet årgang 2008, der virkelig leverer varen! 

Ved køb af 6 flasker leveres vinen i original trækasse.

Anmeldelser af Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2. Cru Classé Pauillac 2008

96/100 La Revue du Vin de France
"Very tasty and harmonious, with delicious and fresh fruit, it has become denser since the primeur tasting. It is supported by a little acidity and a mineral freshness on the finish."

93-95/100 Neal Martin
"This has a deep garnet/purple colour. The nose is tightly-wound, ripe blackberry, plum, pencil shavings and a touch of green leaves. Moderate definition. This is quintessential Pichon-Lalande on the nose, lovely silky mouthfeel, very fine tannins, beautifully balanced, certainly not a powerful Pauillac, but very refined and elegant with blueberry, cassis and crushed stones. It just leaves the mouth lacquered in Cabernet. Wonderful – Pichon is on a roll! Tasted April 2009."

94/100 Antonio Galloni
"Super-ripe black cherry, plum, smoke, licorice make a strong opening statement in the 2008 Pichon Lalande. The late harvest that year yielded a decidedly super-ripe, exotic Pichon Lalande with captivating inner sweetness and gorgeous textural finesse. Naturally, the 2008 is young. Very young. Even so, it is stunning. Readers looking for an under-the-radar vintage to cellar of Pichon Lalande will find tremendous satisfaction and pure pleasure in the 2008. An Indian summer saved what had up until that time been a rainy and not especially promising vintage."

"The 2008 is a beauty in the style of the 1988. Although not performing as well as I predicted last year, it is unquestionably an outstanding effort as well as one of the better values from Pichon Lalande in many years. Its dense plum/purple hue is accompanied by sweet aromas of red and black currants, charcoal, herbs, underbrush and a hint of truffles. This medium-bodied, rich, concentrated blend of 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc is an elegant, supple Pichon Lalande that can be drunk now or cellared for 15-20 years."

"Dense crimson with a slightly weak rim. Scented, aromatic. Just 29% Merlot but this seems very fleshy and seductive. Not the firmest 2008 though there were dry tannins on the finish. A little lighter than some – a rather different, less dense wine than some more ambitious 2008 Pauillacs – but should give lots of pleasure. Very rich and round and flattering. There is ripeness and real charm here too. Impressive length. "
