Description

One bottle of this well-regarded wine. Some recent tasting notes from Cellartracker:

Still dark ruby but you can see through it in the glass. Immediate blast of leafy, peppery Cabernet Franc. Still some cassis as well and seems incredibly well preserved. On the palate, mid-weight, clean and heathy fruit with good acidic uplift. No blockbuster but lovely fresh, heathy fruit with just enough ripeness to make it enjoyable. You have to love that almost St. Julian touch of forest floor and bell pepper to really enjoy this which I find speaks to Pichon ‘s terroir and its higher percentage of Cabernet Franc in its blend. A fine lunch claret indeed!

We had this along with the 2009 2008 2003 1996 and 1988 vintages the same night. 1988 was my favourite Vintage of the night, compare to 2003, 2008 and 2009 vintages, which showed some vanilla and oak on the nose and less complex, more polish/ modern on the palate, 1998 was nice, with smoke, tobacco, spices, blue and black berries on the nose, on the palate, it showed good structure, deepness, complexity, with nice and gentle tannin and acidity on the finish.

Lovely nose. A little dusty, old books this time. Still opens out into juicy blackberry.

Unbelievably consistent across time, superb wine making. Freshness, balance, complexity, the roasted herbs, the menthol, the beef blood and oodles of delicate, ripe, red berry fruit. Time has added library books to the flavor profile which integrate seamlessly. To be sure, this is dry as a bone, but it showcases all these flavors so well without any sweetness. Spectacular Pauillac, spectacular wine. A serious QPR for BDX. I am starting to view Lalande in the same light as the Haut Brions, somewhat awesome no matter what the vintage, is its their shared reliance on Merlot?

The nose is wild, heavy cream, candied orange peels, milk chocolate. So different than the drink. Wonderful stuff.

It should keep much longer, plenty of polished tannins that don't dry you out, but this seems to be at its apex in 750 format.

Exactly as expected. Leathery, herbal, with sweet fruit. Quite lovely.
