Second Growth. Deuxieme Grand Cru Classe in 1855. Since 2007 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is owned by the Rouzaud family of Louis Roederer. 

Expert tasting note: "Medium to deep ruby-red, not opaque. Aromas are restrained cassis & plum. The palate is mid weight, fresh, balanced and extremely harmonious. The structure is very silky, with a dense cassis and black-fruit core. Balanced alcohol lets the fruit core linger on an exceptionally long, fresh finish." - DCAMW 5/21
