Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande

Pichon-Lalande is the single hottest property in the Médoc right now. Since arriving from Montrose in 2012, technical director Nicolas Glumineau has set his sights on improving quality, and the last few vintages suggest that he is well on his way to achieving that objective. In 2016, the harvest stretched out over an entire month, from September 20 to October 20. The wines came in between 13.1 and 13.3% alcohol, which is lower than either 2009 or 2010, both of which were close to 13.5 percent, and yet they have remarkable intensity, phenomenal balance and off-the-charts levels of tannin. These are among the most complete and satisfying wines of the vintage.
