Pichon Baron 2009
CRITIC REVIEWS
James Lawther MW
Youthful crimson hue. Fresh and floral on the nose. Plenty of intensity and poise. Identical on the palate, the fruit juicy, the tannins strong but integrated. Manages power and charm. Only just opening and still a long way to go. (JL)

Served blind at the Southwold 2009 tasting. The Pichon Baron 2009 is a great wine destined to last for many years. It has a very well defined bouquet with blackberry, creme de cassis and still some vanillary new oak that needs bottle age to be subsumed. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannins. This is beautifully composed and pure with an unerring symmetry. It is tightly coiled and very precise, yet the finish has enormous length. Outstanding. Tasted January 2013.
