Les Griffons de Pichon Baron, Pauillac 2019
What the critics are saying...
The 2019 Les Griffons de Pichon Baron has a well-defined bouquet of blackberry and cedar scents and (still) those iris petals. There is a light ash-like scent in the background. The saline palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and less licorice than out of barrel, leading to a fresh, detailed finish. Excellent. Drink Now - 2043

_____________________
The second wine of this great estate, the 2019 Les Griffons De Pichon Baron is a more Merlot-dominated release and is 59% Merlot and 41% Cabernet Sauvignon that saw 40% new oak. It has a gorgeous nose of ripe blackcurrant and darker cherry fruits as well as tobacco, smoked herbs, violets, and freshly sharpened pencils. Vibrant, pure, and complex aromatically, it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, has the vintage's pure, elegant character, terrific depth on the mid-palate, and outstanding length. It's a wonderful, already approachable Pauillac that will deliver the goods over the coming 20+ years. Drink Now - 2044
