Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2000

Wine Advocate

Tasted at Roberson’s Pichon Lalande/Pichon Baron vertical. The millennial Pichon Lalande remains a perplexing Pauillac. The nose is very pinched with a slightly metallic element that seems to subdue the fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with light, slightly piquant red-berried fruit with tart cherries to the fore, but where is the weight on the finish? Perplexing. Tasted September 2010. (NM 3/2012)
