Lot Details

Description

Château Pichon Longueville, Baron 1990

Pauillac, 2ème Cru Classé

Excellent level and label, slight signs of old seepage on very slightly cracked embossed wax capsule; Excellent niveau et étiquette, légers signes d'anciens écoulements sur la capsule estampée très légèrement craquée

 

In 2019, this is classic Claret and profoundly Pauillac, from start to finish. On the palate, soft and velvety, without the ultimate class of Pichon Baron today, but full of chocolatey fruit and pleasing structure.
