Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande - Resèrve de la Comtesse 2019

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2019 Resèrve de la Comtesse is striking, soaring from the glass with scents of violets and rose petals mingled with cassis and dark berries. Medium to full-bodied, polished and succulent, it’s lively and seamless, with impressive concentration and a long, penetrating finish.

James Suckling

This is a very solid second wine of Pichon Lalande with blackberry, blueberry and sweet, dried-tobacco character. It’s full-bodied, chewy and polished.

The nose is fruity, elegant, racy, beautifully built and offers a beautiful finesse of the grain, power (full of delicacy), deepness as well as an imperceptible creamy hint. It reveals notes of bright Boysen berry, pulpy raspberry, small notes of violet, small bright red fruits associated with fine touches of toasted, chocolate, camphor, a racy minerality, lily as well as very discreet hints of hazelnut, pepper and a very discreet iodine hint. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, finely acidulous, elegant, racy, beautifully defined and offers tension (full of finesse), a beautiful finesse of the grain, a beautiful ripe/bright fruit, finesse of the suavity as well as sapidity, freshness and a beautiful aromatic purity of the fruit. On the palate this wine expresses notes of bright raspberry, pulpy/juicy blackberry, small notes of pulpy/juicy small red berries associated with fine touches of cornflower, a racy minerality, toasted, caramelized almond as well as discreet hints of sweet spices, a hint of nutmeg, ripe hazelnut and a very discreet saline hint (in the background). Tannins are elegant and coating. A beautiful gourmand and sapide persistence. A very fine flowery hint and caramelization on the persistence/aftertaste.
