Pichon Lalande 2003 is a mature-vintage, Cabernet Sauvignon-based red wine from the Pauillac appellation of Bordeaux. Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is a prestigious Pauillac Second Growth estate owned by Champagne Louis Roederer. The property is renowned for producing wines that offer beautifully ripe fruit, sumptuous texture and deep savoury complexity. On the 2003 grand vin. "Made from a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot, this spectacular 2003 hits all the sweet spots on the palate. A glorious bouquet of cedarwood, jammy black currants, cherries, liquorice and truffle is followed by a dense, opulently textured, full-bodied wine with terrific purity and freshness as well as deep, velvety textured tannins. Enjoy this beauty over the next 10-12 years." Robert Parker, 2014
