"What's so striking about 2009 - and I haven't seen this sort of excitement since 1982 - is the quality of the Cru Bourgeois and the petit vins and the generic Bordeaux that are available.In short,2009 is the greatest vintage I have tasted in Bordeaux since 1982,of which it is a modern-day version,but greatly improved".
Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. #188. April 2010).
The Picque-Caillou vineyards are situated just a few hundred metres from those of Chateau Haut-Brion and the wines are now benefiting greatly from the active involvement of superstar winemaker Denis Dubordieu.The 2009 Picque-Caillou has been getting excellent tasting notes from Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast:-
"Blueberry and flowers,with hints of sweet tobacco on the nose.Full-bodied,with polished and silky tannins and a long,juicy finish.Best ever from here".
(90-93 Points).
Wine Spectator. (Review of 2009 Bordeaux. 2010).
"Focused and compact,this red shows tobacco,anise and smoke flavors,with just enough plum fruit to keep it lively.A brooding style that wants food to blossom.Best from 2010 through 2020".
WineSpectator.com (2012).
"A fine,fresh,berry flavored wine,delicious acidity,ripe final fruits.Great balance here,the year's freshness in fine focus".
(94 Points).
