The 2005 Chateau Pichon-Longueville au Baron de Pichon-Longueville is a testament to the grandeur of Pauillac. This wine, with its deep ruby-red hue, unveils a tapestry of dark fruits interwoven with tight cedary and dusty notes. On the palate, the black fruits are remarkably fresh, supported by a robust structure. The wine's mid-weight profile is perfectly balanced by the alcohol, culminating in a finish that resonates with elegance. With a decanting time of 2 hours, this wine reveals its full potential, offering a harmonious blend of intensity and exceptional length that promises to evolve beautifully over time.
