Lot Details

Description

Château Pichon Longueville, Baron 2005

Pauillac, 2ème Cru Classé

u. vts, slightly scuffed label, wax capsule partially damaged revealing slightly raised cork


Purple damson colour. Big Pauillac style - comparisons with Pontet Canet. The sheer health of the vintage bursts out of the glass. Pronounced acidity and big shoulders. Tight-knit at four years old. Cassis finish. A big, sturdy wine that needs decades to hone down. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

WA 93


深紫色澤,強勁波克亞酒區風格 - 能與Pontet Canet相比,健康氣息澎湃,酸度突出,陳年四載酒體仍然緊緻,黑加侖子收結,此巨大健碩的佳釀需陳年數十年。施慧娜 (葡萄酒大師M.W.)


1 imperial - 6 litres (owc)


Provenance

Purchased from the most reputable Sotheby's Single Owner sales, as well as directly from trusted merchants on release. Highlights include an extraordinary vertical of Lafite from 2006 back to 1945, plus a high concentration of back-vintage 1st and 2nd Growth large formats, exceptional 1970 Oenotheque from Dom Perignon and a deep collection of aged Vega Sicilia, almost entirely purchased from Sotheby's direct from estate auction with many of the older vintage large formats carrying Pablo Alvarez' signature.
