Description

Tasted at Bordeaux Index's "10-Year On" tasting in London. The Pichon Lalande 2003 is a notorious wine that has so often displays off-putting vegetal notes. This is a much better bottle. It has a smudged bouquet of red berries, cassis, blackcurrant pastilles and a touch of violet. The merlot is very dominant here, rendering it almost like a Saint Emilion wine. The palate is medium-bodied with a fleshy texture, well-judged acidity and natural composure. It is a forward Pichon Lalande, but it is very refined and harmonious with a sensual caressing finish.

Tasting note

品飲印象:打開杯蓋後是成熟黑果、黑醋栗與梅子,帶有一抹紫羅蘭、煙草與雪松香,還有乾果與香料的暗影。口感豐滿但不厚重,酒體飽滿、絲滑,單寧扎實卻被圓潤果質包裹,酸度讓整體保持清新,餘韻悠長且帶誘人的柔和回甘。 酒莊與產地:碧尚拉龍-女爵為波爾多經典二級名莊,長期由家族陣營細心打理,注重精緻與平衡。葡萄園位於梅多克的礫石台地,排水良好、靠近吉倫河口與大西洋的微氣候讓果實成熟同時保留風土表現。 釀造工藝:採用重力流程作業,從採收到入桶盡量溫和處理,先分流出甜美的“free run”,再精準壓榨取得補足結構的酒汁。經嚴格挑選後進行約15個月的橡木桶陳釀,旨在取得細緻單寧與層次感。 喝法小提示:建議醒酒半小時到一小時,解開香氣後與牛排或陳年硬質乳酪一起享用,口感更迷人。

Tasting note: Mature Pauillac intensity — lifted aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry and plum threaded with violet, tobacco, cedar and a hint of fig and dried spice. The palate is rich and sensuous: plush, medium–full-bodied with ripe, structured tannins, lively acidity and a long, caressing finish. Producer notes: From the storied 2ème Grand Cru Classé estate, this vintage shows the house’s signature elegance balanced with the warmer 2003 year’s generosity. Ownership under May Eliane de Lencquesaing maintains meticulous selection and traditional style. Winemaking notes: A gravity-flow approach is used from reception to barrel, separating free-run and press fractions and blending for optimal structure. Precision pressing and rigorous selection produce press wines to complement the smoother ferment-derived tannins. Aged 15 months in oak. Vineyard notes: Vineyards sit on classic Médoc gravel over clay subsoil—light, well-drained sites that force concentration while the Gironde estuary and Atlantic influence temper the climate. The terroir lends mineral lift and clarity to ripe fruit. Serving: Best enjoyed after a short decant (30–60 minutes) to unfurl aromas; pairs beautifully with grilled or roasted red meats and aged hard cheeses.
