Immerse yourself in the captivating complexity of the 2022 Reserve de la Comtesse. This exceptional wine, from the renowned Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande (a 2nd Classified Growth of Pauillac), opens with a captivating nose. Intriguing notes of minerality intertwine with hints of cedar and licorice, creating a captivating base for the vibrant fruity notes of blackberry, blackcurrant, and floral fragrances. The palate is a delightful dance of juicy and lush fruit, with a framework of strawberry and cherry taking center stage. Round yet precise tannins ensure a delightful structure, leading to a long and flavorful finish. This meticulously crafted blend comprises 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc.

Critic Reviews
Wine Advocate
93 Points
93 Points, William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Readers shouldn't overlook the 2022 Resèrve de la Comtesse, a lovely wine that's one of the most accomplished second wines of Bordeaux. Offering up aromas of sweet minty berries, burning embers, pencil shavings and violets, it's medium to full-bodied, lavish and aromatic, with an almost exotic core of fruit, powdery tannins and a penetrating finish." 03/25

93 Points, Georgina Hindle, Decanter: "Gorgeous aromatics, vibrant but deep too. Tannins make the impact straight away, there’s good density here, clear concentration this is carrying some heft in the really quite potent dark fruit flavours, spiced edges and sense of heat that comes through the underneath. Broad but focussed, definitely more streamlined than wide and plush, with almost chewy tannins but that have a pure cool blue fruit, liquorice and slate grip to them giving them edges and creating the linear focus. Feels well constructed, still on the tense nervous side but it has an appealing juicy grip too. 3.8pH. 50% grand vin, 50% second wine. 3.8pH. 2% Cabernet Franc completes the blend." 03/23

The 2022 is unusual in that it includes all the Petit Verdot produced at the property. That's a decision that paid off handsomely." 01/25
