El inmenso y elegante edificio que alberga la bodega Chàteau Pichon-Longueville se construyó en 1851. Perteneciente en la actualidad a la compañía AXA Millésimes, la gran clase que atesora la dirección de eventos de esta bodega de Pauillac fue recompensada recientemente con el Golden Trophy en el Best of Wine Tourism Awards 2011. Estamos frente a una bodega con 73 hectáreas de viñedo, y una producción anual estimada en ciento ochenta mil botellas. Su sala de barricas alberga un porcentaje de ochenta por ciento de madera nueva.
El vino de Pichon-Longueville suele tener una estela de calidad indudable, siendo uno de los vinos más expresivos de todo el Pauillac.
La añada 2010 se compone a blend composed of 79% cabernet sauvignon and 21% of Merlot, with an alcohol content of 13'75%. Color
beautiful, intense, deep, dark hue, apicotado and violet undertones. Huge nose, one of the most fulfilling and made the whole issue of primeurs 2010. Notes of black currant, followed by a development comprising aromatic wood, truffles and nuts. Via olfactory delights, a perfect nose. In the mouth, is educated, well built, with an undeniable condition of balance and structure. Redondo and pronounced. Input good offense, good hint of sweetness, with a perfect posterior acidity, which realizes the projection on the time it can to have. The tannins are fine and rounded show. It notes that wine is very spoiled and worked. Travel generous with tongue and palate. Very satisfying. Persistence. Aftertaste that recovers the black fruit, and adds a light intensity toast and a homage to the truffle blessed.
I thought it was a sensational wine, balanced, dense and with class and caste. Buena
storage capacity.
More than advisable, necessary.
