The Wine IndependentDescription
The richness and precision of a Pauillac red wine
The estate
Second Grand Cru Classé of Pauillac, the magnificent Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande shines on the Pauillac appellation.
It was in 1925 that the Miailhe family, under the features of Édouard and Louis Miailhe, acquired this property on the left bank of Bordeaux. An emblematic figure of Gironde viticulture, May-Eliane de Lencquesaing, daughter of Edouard Miailhe, managed the Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande from 1978 to 2007, the date of the acquisition of the estate by the Rouzaud family, owner of the Champagne House Louis Roederer.
The vineyard
This large Pauillac vineyard rests on soils composed of gravelly hills on sandy-clay subsoil.
Grape variety
Cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc and petit verdot.
