Winemaker Notes:  On the nose, this wine exudes an array of luxurious aromas, revealing layers of red and dark fruit, including succulent blueberry, black cherry, and blackcurrant. As you take a sip, you'll experience the well-balanced richness and fullness of its fleshy, powerful attack, followed by delicate notes of vanilla and spices that linger on the palate.

The silky, opulent tannins of Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2017 are a delight, leaving a crispness that enhances the wine's full-bodied character. The finish is precise and tantalizing, a testament to the typicity of the grapes and the wine's impressive tension and density.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Wine Spectator - "A sleek, precisely dialed-in Pauillac, with a pure and racy beam of cassis, blackberry and dark plum fruit inlaid with a mouthwatering iron note. A backdrop of singed alder and sweet tobacco waits in reserve, while the finish sails through with great cut. Possesses a regal feel. Best from 2025 through 2040. "


Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "Composed of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2017 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and is a little closed to begin, soon revealing floral notes of lilacs and lavender over a core of black raspberries, warm blackberries and forest floor plus touches of star anise and stewed black tea. Medium-bodied, the palate is a bundle of energy and tension with softly played tannins and beautiful floral and black fruit layers, finishing with a long-lingering whisper."


Wine Enthusiast - "This smoky wine is structured and full of dry tannins. Acidity comes with the black-currant fruits that are slow to develop but will get there. Drink this wine from a great estate from 2024. "


Jeb Dunnuck - "The Grand Vin 2017 Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande checks in as a rough blend of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, and 6% Cabernet Franc, with yields a modest 36 hectoliters per hectare. Still again in 60% new French oak, it sports a deep ruby color as well as textbook Cabernet flair in its black and blue fruits, leafy herbs, violets, and building minerality. Hitting 13.1% alcohol, it’s medium to full-bodied, elegant and seamless on the palate. It doesn’t have the weight of the 2015 but shines for its incredible purity and precision."


Decanter - "Tasting in a blind lineup across Pauillac, it is instantly clear that what you get in this glass is better clarity of fruit, a darker and more serious texture across the palate and some lovely saffron and cinnamon notes to fill out the body. This feels like a Pauillac and even though it doesn't have the concentration of bigger years, there is a lot to be delighted about here. Silky tannins, burnished confidence, well-handled oak. Wait just another five years then ready to go with a carafe."


James Suckling - "A tight, compact young Bordeaux with medium body, polished and round tannins and a medium finish. Not a big wine, but some very classy currant and raspberry character and just a hint of lead pencil and polished structure. Drink after 2022."


Wilfred Wong - "The 2017 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is powerful, layered, and firmly structured. TASTING NOTES: This wine exhibits aromas and flavors of black fruit, oak, and earth. Enjoy it with a well-marbled, grilled ribeye."
