2020 Chateau Pichon-Longueville au Baron de Pichon Longueville (750ml)

Cabernet Sauvignon from Pauillac, Bordeaux, France

B-21 Top Recommendation

“A towering wine...” - James Molesworthy,Wine Spectator

Described as “unmistakably Pauillac” by Inside Bordeaux’s Jane Anson, the powerful and irresistible, 99-point 2020 Chateau Pichon-Longueville au Baron de Pichon Longueville ranks among the year’s top Left Bank blends in an outstanding vintage of “brilliant wines” according to the Wine Advocate’s William Kelley, boasting rich, aromatic dark fruit with nuances of graphite and cedar layered with lush tannins on a lengthy finish, conveyed ready for the cellar in pristine provenance for Bordeaux collectors to savor over the next several decades.

Located on the D2 Route des Chateaux facing Pichon-Lalande with Chateau Latour just to the north, the magnificent Pichon Baron estate is a study of contrasts, its 19^th century fairytale-like turreted Chateau mirrored in a large reflecting pool and set among expansive areas of gravel and grass, while its adjacent gravity-fed winery built slightly underground boasts a contemporary glass walled tasting room on the top floor overlooking meticulous rows of vines. Reinvigorated by its purchase by the AXA Millesimes group and under the direction of legendary managing director Christian Seeley since 2000, the estate spans 73 hectares planted mostly to Cabernet Sauvignon with 40 hectares dedicated to the Grand Vin including a 20-hectare parcel of old vines located directly in front of the chateau planted in 1943, the vineyards boasting deep gravelly soils mixed with veins of sand and clay considered the best terroir in the Medoc. A blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon and 24% Merlot with only 48% of overall production making the final cut, longtime winemaker Jean-René Matignon vinified the grapes for the 2020 Pichon Baron parcel by parcel before determining the final blend, aging it for 18 months in 70% new and 30% one vintage French oak barrels and yielding a “blue blooded Pauillac” according to Vinous critic Neal Martin that reveals fresh. opulent dark fruit shimmering with energy and layers of impressive, lush tannins promising to evolve for decades and summed up as “pure gold” by Jeb Dunnuck.

Reflecting its standing as one of only two Super Seconds in Pauillac and earning the coveted #8 spot of the Wine Spectator’s Top 100 of 2023, the formidable 99 pt. 2020 Chateau Pichon-Longueville au Baron de Pichon Longueville is described as a “true classic” by the Wine Advocate’s William Kelley, already “generous, elegant and refined” according to Decanter’s Georgina Hindle with the promise of even greater pleasures to come and certain to deliver years of enjoyment for Pichon Baron collectors and anyone seeking an exceptional value on a magnificent, age worthy Bordeaux.

Fabulous aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry, crushed stone, graphite and lead pencil. Some violets and other flowers, too. Full-bodied with incredibly encompassing tannins that are like the finest velvet in texture. The structure is superb, with so much tension and focus. Seamless. This could be the new 1990 or better. Try after 2028.

99 points, James Suckling (May 2023)

The flagship 2020 Château Pichon-Longueville Baron is pure gold, a full-bodied, rich, powerful 2020 displaying the vintage's purity, focus, and structure front and center. A blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon and 24% Merlot, its dense purple hue is followed by a mammoth-sized bouquet of cassis, blackberries, smoked earth, graphite, and cedar pencil. With ripe tannins, a seamless, layered mouthfeel, and one heck of a finish, it comes closest in my mind to the estate 2010, and I think is clearly in the same realm as the 1989, 1990, 2000, 2009, 2010, 2015, and 2019. It offers pleasure today, but it certainly warrants 7-8 years, a decade if possible, of bottle age and will have 40-50 years of overall longevity.

98+ points, Jeb Dunnuck (Mar 2023)

The 2020 Pichon Baron is every bit as magnificent as it was en primeur. A wine of vertical intensity and explosive power, the 2020 offers up an exotic mix of dark red/black fruit, espresso, licorice, menthol, gravel and dried herbs. This potent, driving Pauillac needs time to come together. It marries the fruit intensity of a warm year with the driving energy of a cool year. The 2020 is a gorgeous Pichon Baron.

98 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous (Feb 2023)

Made with a high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine offers dark tannins that give density and massive black fruits. With a magnificent combination of dark fruits and rich structure, it is set for long-term aging. Drink from 2028.

98 points, Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast (Apr 2023)

Gentle and delicately aromatic but rich too, full of coffee, mocha, dark chocolate, caramel and medicinal herbs - mint and aniseed with a combination of red, blue and black berry fruits. Lovely density and weight on the palate, really very tannic but wide with an aerated effect so it doesn't feel at all heavy with a bright juiciness and extremely long length. The tannins make the first impression with a velvet texture and chalky minerality but it’s clean and the fruit has a crystalline purity that gives a sleek and direct overall impression. Generous, elegant and refined yet still not showing its best.

98 points, Georgina Hindle, Decanter (Jan 2023)

The brilliant 2020 Pichon-Longueville Baron offers up inviting aromas of sweet berries and cassis mingled with pipe tobacco, loamy soil, pencil shavings and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, its velvety attack segues into a concentrated mid-palate that's framed by rich, powdery tannins, concluding with a long, vibrant finish. A blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon and 24% Merlot, it's a true classic that's a touch less demonstrative out of the gates than the sensual 2019, but which in the fullness of time will prove every bit as good.

97 points, William Kelley, Wine Advocate (Apr 2023)

This has a very large-scaled yet properly proportioned core of cassis, plum and blackberry fruit flavors that are remarkably pure and focused. Buried deep within is a sleek, vibrant iron spine that drives the finish as the fruit keeps pace. Extra savory, tobacco and cedar nuances fill out all the remaining available space. A towering wine, with a buttoned-up feel. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2030 through 2045. 12,404 cases made, 550 cases imported.

#8 - Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2023

A blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon and 24% Merlot, the 2020 Pichon Baron is deep garnet-purple in color. It gallops out of the glass with powerful notes of creme de cassis, blackberry pie, and licorice, followed by suggestions of rose petals, Indian spices, and cedar chest with a touch of mocha. The medium-bodied palate is elegant and fresh with fine-grained tannins supporting the bright black fruits, finishing long and perfumed.
