Pichon Comtesse Réserve 2025 - France - En Primeur
Pauillac, Bordeaux, France
Pichon Comtesse Réserve is the second wine of Château Pichon Comtesse de Lalande, one of Pauillac’s most elegant classified estates. It is crafted in a more approachable style than the grand vin, while still reflecting the estate’s signature finesse, aromatic purity, and refined Cabernet-driven structure.
The nose is expressive and polished, showing blackcurrant, blackberry, red cherry, violet, cedar, graphite, and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with fine tannins, fresh acidity, and a smooth, supple fruit core. It is elegant rather than powerful, with a gentle mineral lift and a clean, refined finish.
