Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 96
The 2008 Pichon Lalande's final blend was 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Only 38% of the crop made it into the grand vin, and the result is a wine that blows away the 2005. Terrific texture and opulence, forward fruit, sweet tannin, and a lush personality are found in this dense purple-colored 2008 along with copious quantities of sweet berries, roasted coffee, underbrush, black currant, and black cherry fruit. Sensationally pure, textured, and full-bodied, this will be a flamboyant, showy offering in its youth, but it is capable of lasting 20-30 years.This is another top estate with very low yields (42 hectoliters per hectare) that achieved an atypically high alcohol level of 13%.
《Chateau Pichon Lalande》
女爵莊園 Pichon Lalande位於法國波爾多Pauillac產區,1855年的波爾多評級中,獲得列級酒莊第二級。在分裂成為今天我們所熟識的男爵莊園和女爵莊園之前,原來的Pichon莊園應該起源於十七世紀末。受限於當時新的拿破崙法典規定,酒莊在莊主的五個子女中平均分配。因此將酒莊被一分為二,分給兩子和三女。三女分得的就是Pichon Lalande,而兩子分得的部分就是Château Pichon Baron酒莊。20世紀後,女爵莊園聘請波爾多釀酒大師Pascal Ribereau-Gayon負責園內釀酒的大任,Pascal是Leoville Lascases與Petrus釀酒師Emile Paynaud大師的徒弟。除此本莊園採用高比率的Merlot品種,所釀之酒「新舊皆宜」,年輕即可飲用,有豐郁的果香與適中的單寧,她也可陳年10-20年以上,帶有Chateau Latour成熟時的氣息,酒質豐厚且柔順,單寧高雅不澀口,也是款“Super Second”超二級酒莊,與St-Julien區的二級酒Chateau Leoville Lascase常互別苗頭。
