The concentration and largesse of the 2016 Pichon Baron is apparent from the get-go with incredibly alluring, ripe and expansive fruit aromas in the blackberry, dark-cherry, mulberry and plum zone. Espresso and cedar, as well as a slate-like, stony mineral edge add complexity. The palate has incredible depth, drive and detail. Fine and plush tannins stretch the palate in every direction. So fresh and vivacious, this is the greatest Pichon Baron since 1989 and has a long future.

About the Brand

Chateau Pichon Longueville Baron or Chateau Longueville au Baron de Pichon-Longueville (commonly referred to as Pichon Baron) has dates back to 1694, when Jacques de Pichon Baron de Longueville married the daughter of Pierre De Rauzan, the creator of the estate. Their descendants will remain very attached to their property of Pauillac, and it is Raoul de Pichon-Longueville who, in 1851, built the current castle. Classified 2nd growth in 1855, the vineyard of Pichon-Longueville adjoins with Chateau Latour.
The Cabernet-dominated Pichon-Longueville Baron is a more muscular, tannic and full-bodied wine than that of its neighbour across the road, Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande. The grand vin is Chateau Longueville au Baron de Pichon-Longueville. The second wine is Les Tourelles de Longueville, introduced with the 1986 vintage. They require cellaring for at least 10 years.
