CHATEAU BARON DE PICHON-LONGUEVILLE - 2004

Pauillac, Bordeaux with 13.5% alcohol.

TASTING NOTES:

Vivid purple color with pencil shavings, charcoal and chocolate on the nose. Tremendous fruit that is very ripe and concentrated. Smooth yet powerful with a great tannic grip on the palate. Sour cherries, black currants, and a huge plum finish that goes on and on.

SCORE & RECOMMENDATION:

93 PTS
An absolutely beautiful wine that will only get better with more time in the bottle. Retails for about $60 a bottle which is expensive but a bargain in comparison to 2005 and beyond pricing. Highly recommended!
