The
history of Château
Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande goes back to
the XVIIth century. It is one of the greatest wines
of Pauillac with a remarkable subtlety.
It
is also one of the most beautiful castles in the region; absolutely
worth while visiting when touring in the Médoc.
The
vineyards extend 80 hectares, over an underground of
profound graves.
Encépagement
(Balans of parts of the plantation of the different ‘cépages’):
Trilogy
Bordelaise (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc), with
a proportion of the rather important Petit Verdot (between
5 and 10%).
2nd wine :
‘La
Réserve de la Comtesse’
