2021 Pichon-Lalande, Pauillac (OWC)

Bid on this 6-bottle lot of 2021 Pichon-Lalande, Pauillac (OWC - 98VN, (95-97WE), 96DC, (94-96JD), 95JA, (94-95JS), 95RP) in original wood. Vinous: "The 2021 Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is a towering wine. Just as it did en primeur, the 2021 dazzles from start to finish. The Cabernets are very high in the blend, and that comes through in a Saint-Julien endowed with ton of explosive vertical lift. Lavender, dried herbs, mint, spice, rose petal and a kick of orange peel are some of the notes that run through this striking Pichon Comtesse. The aromatics alone are compelling, but everything about the 2021 speaks to class personified. Bright saline notes extend the finish. In a word: sublime. (AG)" (02/2022)
