Pichon-Lalande 2012 Bordeaux is a well-balanced, supple and powerful wine, smooth and structured offering great complexity with elegance.
The aromas are of blackberry and blackcurrant with some violet and cedar. The palate is distinct, recalling blackcurrant, this wine is especially expressive in its deep, rounded structure, beautifully controlled, offering a finish that is lively with good, well-crafted tannins.

'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.' - Robert M. Parker MW.
Grape: Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot
Matches perfectly with lamb, red meats, cheese, truffle and game.
