Grand Vin Château Pichon Baron 2nd Cru Classé in 1855 comes from the very oldest vines grown on the historic plots of the estate. This authentic Pauillac offers an amazing sensory experience with its black fruit flavors and spicy hints. Château Pichon Baron shows great elegance, intensity, and exceptional length on the palate. It is a wine that improves year after year and can age for over 40 years in the cellar.

Château Pichon Baron 2020 reveals a very beautiful, intense garnet colour. The fresh, precise, and complex nose offers aromas of ripe red fruit, spices, cedar, and pencil lead. The attack is ample with a powerful, creamy, and elegant palate. The tannins are silky and racy. The finish is long, fruit-driven, and peppery. 13.6% ABV
