Chateau Pichon Longueville Baron 2017

Château Pichon Longueville Baron 2017 is a benchmark Pauillac expression from the Left Bank's second-tier hierarchy. The blend—78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot—delivers a medium-full frame anchored by blackcurrant and dark plum fruit, layered with cedar, black pepper, and mineral tension. Secondary oak integration introduces tobacco and leather complexity; tertiary age-worthiness suggests this vintage will evolve gracefully over 15–20 years. Food-friendly structure and classical Bordeaux architecture make it equally suited to immediate enjoyment or patient cellaring.
