Persoonlijke gegevens
This 2023 2nd Grand Cru Classe Pauillac Rerserve de la Comtesse was made by Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse. The winery was acquired by the Louis Roederer Champagne estate in 2007. This beautiful Pauillac is a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot. The wine boasts a very refined and pure bouquet of black cherry, cedar, and violet aromas, and is fragrant and sensual. Medium-bodied on the palate, it has supple, rounded tannins enveloped by layers of tobacco-tinged black fruit, leading to a long, slightly spicy, and also smooth finish. The palate is medium to full-bodied, packed with juicy black fruit and abundant earthy/mineral nuances, finishing with wonderful freshness and a calm intensity. Very impressive. A delicious red wine with excellent aging potential. A little more cellaring will certainly benefit this wine!
Réserve de la Comtesse is a wine that reflects the elegance and complexity of Pichon Comtesse de Lalande, but is more accessible in its youth. This wine is perfect for those who want to enjoy the classic style of a top Bordeaux without the long maturation that a grand vin often requires to reach its full potential. It is an ideal accompaniment to grilled meats, stews, and aged cheeses, but can also be enjoyed solo to fully appreciate its refined character.
FACT: The wine is stored in our climate-controlled Wine Warehouse, and if you pick it up, you'll often receive a nice discount. You'll see your discount immediately when you select "Pick up" at checkout. We're located in Dordrecht with ample parking. Click here for our

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | Deze Pauillac toont een verfijnd smaakpalet van zwart kersen- en cassisfruit, violette en cederachtige tonen, zachte tabaks- en aardse mineraliteit met zijdezachte, rijpe tannines en een lange, licht gekruide afdronk. Door die sappige donkere fruitigheid, frisse zuren en gepolijste tannines vormt hij een perfecte match bij rundvlees, lam, stoofschotels, barbecue en gerijpte kazen omdat de wijn de rijke vleessappen en umami-accenten aanvult zonder te overheersen en tegelijkertijd vetten en zwaardere sauzen snijden en verfrissen. Extra geslaagd wordt de combinatie bij gegrild of langzaam gegaard vlees zoals medium-rare entrecote of langzaam gestoofd sukadelap in rode wijnsaus, bij lamsbout met rozemarijn en knoflook en bij gerijpte kazen op kamertemperatuur die de complexe kruiden- en cederaroma's van de wijn naar voren halen. |

A terrific second wine, the 2023 Resèrve de la Comtesse wafts from the glass with a pure bouquet of blackcurrants, dark berries, lilac and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, layered and velvety, it's sensual and vibrant, with melting tannins and a deep core of cool fruit framed by polished but present tannins. This blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 5% Cabernet Franc marks the 50th anniversary of this second wine's production.
Since joining Pichon Lalande just after the 2012 harvest, Nicolas Glumineau has made a number of changes. In the vineyards, Cabernet Sauvignon is increasingly displacing Merlot, and the soils are worked less frequently. Cover crops are employed, canopy management has evolved, with both fruiting canes now trained in the same direction—Glumineau would like to trial pruning "Guyot simple" if Pauillac's cahier de charges (appellation rules) permitted it—and 27 hectares of the estate's 102 are being farmed organically. A new, highly functional winery and cellar equips him with stainless steel tronconic tanks adapted to parcel-by-parcel vinification. Cooperage choices, too, have been refined (some 65% new oak is the order of the day), and the duration of élevage has been extended to 18-19 months in barrel before racking to tank before bottling. The result? Even as Cabernet Sauvignon occupies a more and more important place in the blend, Pichon Lalande has never been more seamless and sensual, exhibiting a rare degree of structural refinement combined with remarkable complexity and depth of flavor.

From: Bordeaux at the Crossroads: 2023 En Primeur (April 2024)
The 2023 Réserve de la Comtesse is fabulous. This is the first vintage in which Cabernet Sauvignon drives the blend, the result of extensive replanting over the years and vines that are now old enough to be used here. Among other things, that means the Réserve is more closely aligned with the Grand Vin in style, starting in the vineyard. Potent and explosive, the 2023 offers up a heady mélange of dark fruit, leather, spice, grilled herbs and lavender. It’s a stellar wine in every way. Tasted three times.
