Characteristics and tasting tips for Château Pichon Baron 2023

Tasting

Nose
Of great precision, the nose exudes tasty fruity fragrances.

Palate
Perfectly combining tension and power, the palate echoes the aromatic purity and elegance of 2019 as well as the structure and persistence characteristic of 2020.

A rich and balanced Second Grand Cru Classé from Pauillac

The estate

2nd Grand Cru Classé in 1855, the Château Pichon Baron belongs to the elite of the Grands Crus of Pauillac, on the left bank of Bordeaux.

The vineyard

A true mosaic of terroirs and superbly located near the Gironde estuary, the vineyard of Château Pichon Baron extends over 73 hectares of vines planted on perfectly drained Médoc gravel soils. The oldest vines of the estate are used in the making of this iconic Pauillac wine.

The vintage

Cold and particularly wet, the winter is punctuated by a frost episode in early April, impacting the vineyard little. The dry and warm conditions of spring favour a good flowering. Starting under tropical conditions, the month of July reveals over the days a hot climate without excess and very little rain before a cool August with salutary rainfall for the vineyard. The clemency of September, punctuated by some rains, is ideal for refining maturities.

Vinification and ageing

Macération followed by extractions in the heart of fermentation. Draining of the Merlots from September 30 to October 12 and Cabernets from October 10 to 24. Malolactic fermentation under marc, accompanied by regular barrelling by separate batches. Ageing for 18 months in barrels (70% new, 30% of one wine).

Blend

Cabernet Sauvignon (80%)
Merlot (20%).
