Chateau Pichon Lalande – A Superb Super Second

The Pauillac Second Growth of Chateau Pichon Lalande (or Chateau Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande to give it its full name) is one of Bordeaux’s most revered properties.

Pichon Lalande is a beautiful Chateau located in one of Pauillac’s best locations. The building itself is stunning, think of what you’d expect the perfect Bordeaux chateaux to look like, and it’s this. The place and the wines all scream quality.

Some incredible wines have been made here over the years. The 1982, for example, is one of the finest reds from Bordeaux’s most famous vintage. In recent years, Pichon Lalande has undergone something of a renaissance, and it is now consistently outstanding. It has become one of the key En Primeur purchases in any given campaign.

The Grand Vin makes up around 50% of production, with the remainder going into the excellent second wine, Pichon Comtesse Reserve.

Class, Grace, Poise & Sophistication

Chateau Pichon Lalande is superbly located overlooking the Gironde River. It is in a sweet spot of Pauillac. To give an idea of just how well situated it is, parts of the vineyard touch those of the mighty First Growth of Chateau Latour.

The vineyard covers 90 hectares and is planted with 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot. It sits on classic Pauillac gravels over iron-rich clay, which helps it cope well with the increasingly hot summers in Bordeaux.

In style, it is utterly captivating. The epitome of grace, sophistication, and poise. It is “just a stunning wine, easily one of my favourite estates in Bordeaux” for Jane Anson. For her, it has “a grace and vibrancy that delivers personality and signature year after year”.  This is not a burly and imposing Pauillac. Pichon Laladne is effortlessly chic, just oozing refinement, class and panache.

Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes

Antonio Galloni 96-98

The 2025 Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is a total stunner. A wine of depth and intensity, it soars out of the glass with layers of nuance and complexity. The 2025 has it all: aromatics, fruit density and structure to match. Pichon Comtesse is shaping up to be one of the wines of the vintage. [Antonio Galloni, 31/05/2026]

Anticipated maturity: 2035-2075

Neal Martin 95-97

The 2025 Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande was picked from August 28, the earliest ever, finishing on September 23, matured in 66% new oak, the rest one-year-old. It has a taut and linear nose, very classic in style, graphite/pencil lead scents that permeate the black fruit. Beautiful delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannins. A little more structured and austere than the more Merlot-driven vintages of old. Yet as it unfurls in the glass, it reveals the level of sophistication and precision you now come to expect from this Pauillac Second Growth. At 13.1% alcohol, this is lower than other recent vintages. [Neal Martin, 31/05/2026]

Anticipated maturity: 2032-2060

81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc. Cask sample.Deep crimson. Extremely refined aroma of black fruit and lead pencils, pure blackcurrant and a nicely dusty-stony overlay, like crushed stones. Elegant, chalky-fine tannins. This has great finesse and could be approached in relative youth. It doesn t seem to be particularly powerful but I think it is there behind the beguiling finesse. (JH) [12/05/2026]

Anticipated maturity: 2030-2050
