Description
Robert Parker: The grande dame, the 2012 Pichon Lalande represents
only 50% of their harvest production. It has soft, round tannins,
endearing elegance, and up-front fruit. It is not a blockbuster,
but its lush, richly fruity style is charming and seductive, with
raspberry, blueberry, mocha and blackcurrant fruit and a deep
ruby/purple color. This medium-bodied, supple-textured wine is
surprisingly precocious and forward, and therefore best drunk over
the next 15 years. The final blend was 59% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28%
Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot.
