2009 Château Pichon Longueville Baron de Longueville, Pauillac
Ref: BORD0916
Jacques de Pichon Longueville was the first President of the Bordeaux Parliament and came to own this property via a dowry on his marriage to Thérèse, daughter of the owner. Baron Joseph de Pichon Longueville subsequently devided the estate on his deathbed between his sons (who formed Pichon Baron) and his daughters (Pichon Lalande). The family sold Pichon Baron in 1933, but it was when it was sold to the insurance group AXA that Pichon Baron's modern period began. Since 1993 Pichon Baron and all AXA wine estates hvae been managed by Englishman Christian Seely.

Tasting Notes
"The 2009 Pichon-Baron replicates its epic performance at the vertical tasted last year. It has one of the finest bouquets among the group of Pauillac with copious blackberry, mint, melted tar and graphite notes, fresh and supremely well focused. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, very well judged acidity. Harmonious with plenty of tobacco and pencil lead infused black fruit towards the persistent finish. Awesome." Neal Martin
