2021 Chateau Pichon Longueville Baron Pauillac -ABV head and shoulders above in96 points, Vinous "Dark and brooding in bearing, the 2021 Pichon Baron is a somber, mysterious wine. It is every bit as impressive as it was en primeur. Graphite, leather, spice, mocha and dried herbs meld together in a wine of power, precision and contemporary classicism. It's one of my early favorites in this vintage. I won't be too surprised if it turns out even better than this note suggests." Antonio Galloni, February 2024 95 97 points, Vinous
