Les Tourelles de Pichon Baron Pauillac 2022 750ml

Gorgeous blackcurrant and crushed-stone as well as lead-pencil aromas. It's full-bodied with juicy and round tannins that are well integrated and polished, melting into the palate. Lots going on in the fruity finish. 65% merlot, 26% cabernet sauvignon and 9% cabernet franc.

The 2022 Les Tourelles de Longueville is dark, ample and super-expressive. Intense red fruit, new leather, cedar, licorice, mocha and dried flowers fill out the layers. A wine of resonance and power, Les Tourelles is impressive. The elevated presence of Merlot in this warm microclimate seems to emphasize heavier torrefaction notes that are prevalent here but not found in the other wines in the lineup. The 2022 spent 12 months in French oak, 70% once-used and 30% new.
