| Over het wijnhuis | Met zijn twee karakteristieke torentjes ziet Château Pichon Baron er precies zo uit als je van een Frans kasteel verwacht. De geschiedenis gaat terug naar de 17e eeuw, maar het kasteel dateert uit 1851. Een jaar eerder werd het landgoed namelijk in tweeën gesplitst: Pichon Baron (ook Pichon de Longueville genoemd) en Pichon Comtesse (ook Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande genoemd). Baron Raoul Pichon de Longueville was trots op zijn eigendom en liet een imposant kasteel bouwen, hetgeen we nu kennen als Château Pichon Baron. |

| Awards | "Aromas of sweet dark berries and cherries mingled with notions of cigar wrapper, pencil shavings and licorice introduce the 2022 Pichon-Longueville Baron, a full-bodied, layered and multidimensional wine that's deep, dense and lively, with terrific concentration, sweet tannins and a long, penetrating finish. Integrated and serious, this hints at the lavishness inherent to the vintage, while remaining classic and controlled. This blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon and 19% Merlot was bottled in June." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "What a nose with complex aromas of blackberries, blackcurrants, graphite and pencil shavings. Full-bodied, this has layers of tannins and intense richness but is framed and held together by the phenolic structure. Vertical and deep, it goes on for minutes on the palate. Great finish. 81% cabernet sauvignon and 19% merlot. Give this five to six years to come together more. Best after 2030 and beyond." - James Suckling "Interesting to compare the colours of the two Pichons. Pichon Baron looks less concentrated – or more evolved – than Pichon Lalande. Rich ripe nose. Almost raisiny but just stops short. Open and almost devastatingly fruity on the palate. You'd hardly know this was a tannic vintage on the basis of this wine until the very end. They've really gone out on a limb here. It's almost transparent! And the tannins an afterthought. Very interesting. Fear of tannins at work here? Not gloriously long. I'll be fascinated to see how this turns out. (JR)" - Jancis Robinson "The 2022 Pichon Baron is one of the most elegant, polished wines I have ever tasted here. Silky and refined, the 2022 is super-impressive right out of the gate. The aromatics alone are mesmerizing. Blood orange, herbs and floral notes lend notable delineation to a core of Cabernet Sauvignon fruit. As I did en primeur, I find the wine's balance nothing short of exquisite. There's more freshness and vibrancy here than in the past, along with a noticeably lower oak imprint and more sensual tannins that lend notable sophistication throughout. The Grand Vin spent 16 months in French oak barrels, 70% new, and then two months in wood vats prior to bottling." - Vinous "This towering red offers a remarkable combination of freshness and weight. The well-endowed core of cassis, plum and black cherry puree shows polish and brightness, and a sleek iron note keeps this grounded. That background is laced with rose petal, iris and apple wood, while a subtle savory twinge percolates throughout in a way that only a classic Bordeaux can accomplish. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2026 through 2050. 12,797 cases made. Best from 2026 through 2050." - Wine Spectator "Wonderfully aromatic and expressive, with dark fruit, floral scents, chocolate, cinnamon and liquorice. Smooth, svelte, bursting with energy. Juicy strawberries and cherries have crunch from fine tannins and mineral edges. Calm and controlled, yet quietly powerful. Fruit and oak emerge over time, layering chalky, powdery, ripe, spiced and fresh textures. Ends as joyously as it starts, and very moreish." - Decanter |
