CHATEAU PICHON LONGUEVILLE, BARON 2000 |

Château Pichon Longueville, Baron 2000 Pauillac, 2ème Cru Classé3 slightly stained labels, 1 scuffed labelSmoky, plummy nose. Big and a mite 'blunt' at 8 years old. In an adolescent stage, with lots of fruit and structure and a long, thick-textured finish. Big wine, big future. Impressive, as a result of Christian Seely's stricter selection for the 'grand vin'.
