Reserve De La Comtesse Pauillac 2018
Cabernet Sauvignon
Description
The Pichon Longueville estate goes back to 1688-1689. In 1850 Virginie de Pichon Longueville Countess de Lalande and her two sisters inherited three-fifths of the vineyard from their father. This took on the name of Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande. In 1978 May-Eliane de Lencquesaing daughter of Edouard Miailhe in turn inherited this beautiful property and devoted herself entirely to continuing the tradition of quality wine. Just two families have been responsible for maintaining this wine's superb reputation for three centuries. The Reserve De La Comtesse Pauillac 2018 is an international red wine blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. The unusual choice of grape varieties (there is a much higher percentage of Merlot than average) is a partial explanation for this wine's outstanding personality marked by elegance balance and finesse.
